I have a surgeon that does an endoscopic maxillary sinus lavage. He goes in looks around and then does a lavage. That is all he does. Does the code 31233 include the lavage or since there is no code for the endoscopic lavage do you go unlisted?
Thanks for the help!

I would stick with the 31233. I don't believe a lavage would warrant any additional payment. It would be considered part of the procedure performed.
