I was wondering if anyone has any advice about reporting an incision and drainage of a post operative hematoma in the plantar fascia. I can't seem to find a code to match it appropriately. It seems CPT 10060 is for simple procedures. CPT 27603 seems to be a good choice, but the code mentions only leg and ankle, not foot. CPT 28002 seems it could be a candidate, but the code description mentions "single bursal space". The bursa wasn't touch. Can someone please offer advice for this case? Thank you.
 
Hi,

i think for post op hematoma code 10140 with the 998.59(post of nfection).

The CPT 10140 is more for skin procedures. This went far deeper into the fascia.

I did see CPT code 20005, but I was turned away due to the word abscess. Can I use this code for Hematoma?

Thank you all for your help.
