Medical Coding

Answer: D - The correct code for this procedure is 43865 (Revision of Gastrojejunal Anastomosis (Gastrojejunostomy) with Reconstruction, With or Without Gastrectomy or Intestine Resection; With Vagotomy). Code 43860 is used for the same procedure, but without the vagotomy. In this case, a vagotomy was performed, making code 43865 the more appropriate code. Codes 43850 and 43855 are used for a gastroduodenostomy not a gastrojejunostomy.
