For patients at high risk for colorectal cancer, a screening barium enema performed as an alternative to colonoscopy (G0105) is reported with code G0120.

For patients at normal risk for colorectal cancer, a screening barium enema performed as an alternative to sigmoidoscopy (G0104) is reported with code G0106.
