New pump codes effective 1-1-2001 were in last months copy of Medela
Messenger as follows:
Hand pumps E0602
Mini electric to Pump in Styles  E0603
Electric Hospital Grade  E0604
Kits & SNS are still  A7002
Baby Weigh Scale is E1399

I also bill for 779.3 for feeding difficulties of newborn (under 28 days)
and over 28 days for 783.3 feeding mismanagement of infant or elderly.


> For my part, I use E0600 for rentals, E1399 for purchases, 11 for office
> visits, 12 for home visits.  Most new consults I consider 99241
> ("consultation - physician referral"), and the baby code I usually use is
> 779.3 ("feeding difficulty - newborn") or if the baby is 6 weeks or older,
> 783.3 ("feeding difficulty - infant").
