I have a patient that was seen 6weeks after surgery knee arthroscopy with debridement of the patellofemoral joint due to arthritic changes and gouty crystal he also had other procedures done. The visit was in the office and my physician wants me to code an office visit E/M because he diagnosed patient with patellar tendinitis and arthritis of the knee. An injection was also administered at this visit. I beleive I can only code for the injection but not the office visit since it pertains to the same knee operated on. Does anyone have any suggestions?
