My physician has performed a right thyroid lobectomy with laryngeal nerve mapping. His op note reads:
"...the thyroid was rolled over medially to identify the recurrent laryngeal nerve which was done and confirmed with the nerve stimulator."
Is there a code for this or is it considered bundled with the thyroidectomy?

Thanks for your help!
