An elliptical of skin was excisied over the substance of the abscess itself. This was dissected down to the fascia. We then excised the skin and revealed a chronic abscess pocket in the subcutaneous tissue. We irrigated and packed with wet kerlix dressing, Dr wants to bill 10061 and 11042. is this truly supported in this dictation?
