Wiki Need CPT Code for Destruction Sebaceous Hyperplasia

[debneas]

The doctor did a destruction of Sebaceous Hyperplasia using CPT 17110 with Diagnosis code 706.9 and was denied by Medicare. I pulled off the list on medicares website of the codes to use with destructions and nothing applies. Is there any other code to use to get this paid?

706.9 is an unspecified code, try using 706.2 sebaceous cyst
