Hello 
Can someone please tell me if 10060 is to be used for deroofing and drainage of an abscess? I'm under the impression that 10060 is used if there is an incision made which in this case there wasn't.
Thank you

Incision: deroofed abscess with 22 gauge needle
Drainage: small amount, purulent, serosanguineous, cultures obtained
