Hello. My doctor did bilateral L5-S1 lami for removal of epidural lipomatosis, and left L1-L4 lamis for decompression of lumbar stenosis and removal of epidural lipomatosis. The decompression was due to thickened ligament between L1-L5, in addition to the the lipomatosis.
I know I can only code 1 unit of 63267, but can I also code 63047/63048-59 for the stenosis due to thickened ligament?
From reading past replies I think I can, but would appreciate input.
Thanks for any help.
