Since 29888 uses the arthroscope and 27407 also states that the arthroscope can be used for part of procedure, how do you determine which one should be used?
My physician did a reconstruction on the ACL and used a tendon graft but I'm having a hard time deciding which procedure code to use.
He used the arthroscope at the beginning to eval all the compartments and then he used it again while placing the guidewire in the center of the old ACL stump.
I've read so much stuff on this but it never really goes into detail. Any help would be appreciated.
