Answer: No, you cannot report 11044 (Debride-ment; skin, subcutaneous tissue, muscle and bone) in this instance.
Why? The Correct Coding Initiative (CCI) bundles bone debridement into laminectomy codes.
On the claim, report 63045 (Laminectomy, facetectomy and foraminotomy [unilateral or bilateral with decompression of spinal cord, cauda equina and/or nerve root(s) (e.g., spinal or lateral recess stenosis)], single vertebral segment; cervical) for the service.
