Hello Everyone,
Im very new to opthomology coding and I really need to get some kind of refresher course on the eye anatomy because the codes that this office hads been using don't necessarily coincide with what I would choose.
Can I please get your assistance for this particular procedure.
"Exam under anesthesia, disinsertion of right lateral rectus muscle, diathermy, inferior oblique myotomy insertion of radioactive 15.3mm ruthenium-106 plaque"
the older more seasoned coder here coded 67208 and 67218
not saying its necessarily wrong but I feel it is not capturing the procedure completely.
can I please get your opinons and shed some light?
I would greatly appreciate it
God Bless & Happy Holidays to all
