Wiki Debridement question ?

[bella2]

Hi,
I was looking for some opinions on this, our Doctor performed an arthroscopic
debridement of the patella,29877, and a debridement of the ACL. Can we bill seperately for the ACL debridement, 29999 ???

Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

The ACL is part of the patellafemoral compartment so I would say No.
