Direct Look At The Voice Box To Suction The Airway

Wyoming rates for HCPCS 31515

A scope is passed through the mouth to bring the voice box into direct view so secretions, blood, or other material can be suctioned out of the upper airway. Clearing the airway under direct vision means the suction is aimed exactly where the blockage is. It is done under sedation or anesthesia.
