Mаrgаret hаs a chоlecystоenterоstomy with a Roux-en-Y. Five hours later, she has an enormous amount of pain, abdominal swelling and a spike in her temperature. She is returned to the OR for an exploratory laparotomy and subsequent removal of a sponge that remained behind from surgery earlier that day. The area had become inflamed and was demonstrating early signs of peritonitis. What is the correct coding for the subsequent services on this date of service? (The same surgeon took her back to the OR as the one who performed the original operation.)
Use this cаse tо аnswer the fоllоwing questions. A client who hаs just obtained a new 10-week-old golden retriever puppy contacts the practice at which you work as a registered veterinary technician. The breeder gave the puppy some dewormer when it was 6-weeks old, but the puppy has not yet been to a veterinarian to be examined. The owner indicates to you that the puppy is having some vomiting and diarrhea and also seems to have a “pot-bellied” appearance. You tell the owner that it would be a good idea to bring the puppy in to be examined by the DVM and that the owner should bring a stool sample to be examined for parasites. Answer the following series of questions about dealing with this owner and his puppy. What information would be best to give the owner over the phone about obtaining a fecal sample from his puppy that will result in the most accurate diagnosis?
