excision of breast mass

 

[LindaEV]

this will depend on what was done exactly. If you can post the op note or give more info that would be helpful.

Two common codes are:

19120. This would be for a mass that was probably taken without really getting into the breast tissue.

19301. partial mastectomy- this is when you are excising breast tissue with the mass

There are also codes for excisional biopsy...excising a lesion that was marked by a wire....
