I have the rib resection coded as 32900 however I'm not sure how to code the thoracotomy. I'm new to coding and any help/suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance,
Carolina
 
Makes sense

Well 21615 makes much more sense the 32900. Thank you for that. Any idea on the axillary thoracotomy? I ended up using the unlisted procedure, neck and thorax code: 21899.

Thanks for your help!
