Hi all,
Looking for an administration code for this. I have a surgeon who has used this on 3 separate occasions.
1. Proximal humerus fracture repaired by ORIF and a mix of cancellous chips and NuCel put into the bone void (NOT INJECTED) after the orif was completed.
2. Two patients that had meniscectomy and then were injected with NuCel at the completion the surgery.
We will not be billing the supply as the hospital purchased the NuCel, but I was wondering if there is a injection code/administration code for this...or is it consider part of the surgery?
Any advice is appreciated.
Thank you
