Wiki Baker's cyst I&D

[kimmcelderry@gmail.com]

I can't find a cpt for I/D of a baker's cyst in the same encounter as an arthroscopic meniscectomy (29881) Any ideas? This is not an excision! Please see this portion of the note: Thank you for your help!

I would take a look at 10060 - 10061 - It says incision and drainage of an abscess, but in the parentheses it includes cysts.
