Jejunum Bypass Procedure Overview
Procedures in this group involve creation of an alternate route to bypass a portion of the jejunum within the gastrointestinal system to redirect the flow of intestinal contents. These bypass operations change the route of passage of the jejunal contents and may be performed to treat obstruction, ischemia, or other pathological conditions. Accurate coding of jejunum bypass procedures supports precise inpatient clinical documentation and appropriate reimbursement for the services provided.
