Hi,
Hoping someone can help me with this. If a surgeon does a lumbar discectomy at L3-4 and then does a redo discectomy at L4-5 what CPT code would be used? I know you would use 63030 for a discectomy and 63042 for a redo discectomy but I am confused on how to code this since one level was a new one and the second level was a redo. Thanks!
