Can I please get opinions on CPT for this procedure:
Procedure: gentle debridement of apparent folliculitis performed under sterile precautions. Wound area cleaned with iodine and then unroofed with 11 blade scalpel. There is a mild amount of thick purulence that is gently expressed from wound. It is suspicious for early abscess so will cover with short course of PO abx with MRSA coverage.
Thanks for any help.
