The doctor performed an "Achilles tendon debridement, treatment with Topaz microdermabrader, and injection of platelet rich plasma."
I can find the PRP code as 0232T, (which MCR won't pay), but I am having an awful time finding a CPT code for this procedure. The doc wants to use 27654, but the tendon is not being repaired from a rupture. I looked at code 27680, but I don't think that really fits either.
The DX is tendinosis. Should I report 726.71 Achilles tendonitis, or 726.8, other enthesopathies?
HELP!
