Does anyone else code cortisone injections into a lipoma?
Or does anyone have a suggestion for a CPT code for the injection?
The note reads:

"Deep subcuticular fatty tumors present at the rear foot dorsal lateral..."
"Injected Kenalog 20 mg... to the lipoma at the dorsal lateral rear foot"

Any thoughts?
