Can I get other opinions on whether this documentation would be sufficient to code a foreign body removal?
Body area: skin
General location: lower extremity
Local details: right foot
Anesthesia: local infiltration
Local anesthetic: lidocaine 1% withou epinephrine
Anesthetic: 6.5 ml
Localization method: probed
Removal mechanism: hemostat
Dressing: antibiotic ointment
Tendon involvement: non
Depth: sub-q
Complexity: 1 object
Objects recovered: glass piece
Post-procedure assessment: foreign body removed.
thank you for any help.
