Answer 1

CPT codes: Sigmoidoscopy - 45330( It describes that patient assigned for the procedure Sigmoidoscopy).

Index entries:

1. Fleet enema given hence NDC 0132-0119 must b used. ( NDC- National Drug code the above code itself describe the name of the drug).

Sedation not given hence not to include.

2. Colonoscope performed only for screening purpose without any biopsy o interventions. Hence the code for this is 45378.

Everything normal no diagnosis rule out from screening so no ICD codes.
