14-14C I need help with Cpt Code and Icd 10 code. Rationale reasoning of the code also.

Answer 1

ICD- 10(International Classification of disease)
Diagnostic code:
Adenocarcinoma of the ascending colon or malignant neoplasm of the ascending colon- C18.2
CPT code is a procedure code or service code.
Hemicolectomy - 44140
We can code hemicolectomy in colectomy, partial with anastomosis. For laparoscopic approach use 44204
