V44.1--Gastrostomy status

I would recommend the use of this code since it is inserted into the stomach. A gastrostomy is an artifical opening into the stomach.

However, some recommend the use of V44.4--Other artificial opening of gastrointestinal tract. I, on the other hand, feel this code is best used for Jejunostomy status, and would not be appropriate for NG tube status.
