Figured the colonscopy was necessary to remove the polyp. The problem maybe how the medical office coded the procedure. I suggest contacting the insurance company for advice.

Poßibly coded as exploratory should have been coded simply as polyp removal. Would be suspicious in nature due to History. thus necessity for removal
