Deep Small Intestine Endoscopy With Treatment

Virginia rates for HCPCS 44379

A long flexible scope is passed through the mouth and advanced far past the stomach into the small intestine, reaching stretches a standard upper endoscopy cannot. The doctor can see the lining directly and treat a problem found there through the scope during the same session. Sedation is given, and the examination takes considerably longer than a routine upper endoscopy.
