Hi All,
My question is about the use of bone substitute after hardware removal. Since the doctor is using the substitute for a non-union of a subtalar joint, would a repair code along with the hardware removal code be appropriate??
My doc is wanting to use the cpt 20900 for the application of the graft. I thought that code was for harvesting of grafts.![Confused :confused: :confused:](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
Thanks for your help!
