Patient presented for ORIF of bimalleolar fracture. During procedure, the physician performed internal fixation on the medial malleolus , he determined that the lateral malleolus was only minimally displaced and could be treated non-operatively.
I am thinking that I can still bill this with the 27814 for ORIF of bimalleolar fracture even though the physician determined the lateral malleolus did not require internal fixation.
Correct???
