I code for an ASC and need some input on coding a lumbar microscopic diskectomy / decompression. Laminotomy at L4 and facetectomy are documented as well. This is a reexploration from 10 years ago. I have coded it as:
62287
69990
My concern is that this was a reexploration and maybe CPT 63042 would apply but with 69990?? Any advice would be so helpful.
Thank you,
F. Vogel, CPT
