This is a general question:
For example, if you do a medial menisectomy and excision of medial plica, it is my
understanding that you would just code the 29881 and not the 29875. Is this correct ?
However, if you do a lateral menisectomy and excision of medial plica you can code
for both ? The 29881 and 29875 ?
Or am I wrong?
Would appreciate some clarification as the CPT book states 29875 is a separate procedure.
