Steve and everybody:

Shiela made a very good point when we were talking: if a doctor uses 43846 (which is the RNY code, I think) instead of 43847, then when the surgery notes are reviewed it can be disallowed and nothing, including follow-up and correcting any problems, will be covered. Also, the Doc could get into trouble for defrauding them or something.

B458#, BMI 74Pre-op for DSI have an archaic metabolism in a modern world.
