On morbidly obese patient's my surgeon will close the sternum sometimes with internal sternal fixation with Biomet microfixation sternal lock blue plates after a CABG or valve replace/repair procedure. Am I thinking correctly that this complex closure of the sternum
is bundled in with the CABG and valve codes?? If I am wrong in my thinking can someone advise me on how to code for this type of closure? Thx!!![Confused :confused: :confused:](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
