Hi all, hoping for some insight on which CPT codes to use for the following procedures:
PROCEDURES:
1. Redo sternotomy
2. Aortic root, central fibrous body, and hemi-mitral valve replacement (hemi-commando procedure) with 21 mm homograft.
3. Ascending and hemi-arch replacement (24 mm Vascutek SideArm graft)
I wasn't sure about the hemi-commando procedure- is there a separate code for that? Or should I use the MVR CPT code?
Thank you for your help!
