HCPCS 43249
Esophagogastroduodenoscopy, flexible, transoral; with transendoscopic balloon dilation of esophagus (less than 30 mm diameter)
AI EXPLANATION: An upper endoscopy, commonly called an EGD, is a procedure in which a doctor examines the upper digestive tract using a thin, flexible tube fitted with a light and camera inserted through the mouth. When a narrowed section of the esophagus is identified, a small balloon is guided through the scope and gently inflated to stretch and widen the passage, helping to restore normal swallowing.
