Hello,
Can anyone help me with some cpt codes.
Patient has crush injury to the right middle finger. Dr. attempted to reduce the nail into the bed, however, it would not stay in this position. Therefore, a digital block was performed with 3 mL of 1% plain lidocaine, then a single 3.0 Prolene suture was placed. at the bas of the nail pulling the nail back into the cuticle.
I came up with 64450 for the digital block and then 11760 for Nail Bed Repair.
Can anyone tell me if these would be correct and if I can use both or just one or would 11760 cover both?
Thank you,
LLR
