Direct laryngoscopy with removal of a foreign body. This service is an Independent Operative Procedure (IOP). As an IOP, if the major pre-operative visit was rendered in the previous 12-month period by the same physician, only a minor assessment (for GPs) or partial assessment (for specialists) is payable on the same day prior to the service. If the major pre-operative assessment is on the same day, no other assessment is payable prior to the service by the same physician. Manual review is not required for Z322 when rendered in association with gastroscopy, oesophagoscopy, oesophagoscopy-gastroscopy, duodenoscopy, and small bowel push enteroscopy services.
