Can anyone help me with the coding of the removal of an external fixator in the office. The doctor was following up with patient after a finger fracture and did the removal of an external fixator under local lidocaine block in the office. The description of CPT 20694 states "under anesthesia" and I can't find anything to say this code is allowed to be used if procedure is done in the office under local block. Thanks!!
