Hello coders:
Our Dr's are starting to use the Robotics for surgeries. Do you know if reimbursement is any different from Laproscopic? I see code S2900 represents the Robotic part but shows no reimbursement for it through the CMS site.
One Sx we just did was a 49656 which is a Lap recurrent Ventral Hernia. The Dr. also did 15734 which is component seperation he usually does this in a open procedure but this time he did it using the robotic.
I don't see a code for the Robotic or the Laproscopic part.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks!
