Question: Indiana Subscriber Answer: Since the NPP performed both excisions with a single incision, you should group the excisions together and report one code for both. Add the lengths of the two excisions to the margin between the lesions, and choose a code based on that length. (In your scenario, 0.5 + 0.3 + 1.0 = 1.8 cm.). On the claim, report 11422 (Excision, benign lesion including margins, except skin tag [unless listed elsewhere], scalp, neck, hands, feet, genitalia; excised diameter 1.1 to 2.0 cm) for the excision.
