Wiki Parathyroid Excision

[RobynKing]

Hi guys! I am rather new to doing the CPT's because someone else usually does them in my coding program. I have a parathryoid excision that I am not real sure on how to code. Does this go to 88305 or 88307? Example:

1. Right Superior Parathyroid, Excision:

• Hyperplastic parathyroid tissue, compatible with adenoma.

Any help would be appreciated!!! Thank you in advance!!!

Hello RobynKing,
Parathyroid gland (excision) would be assigned CPT 88305.
Thanks for listening,
