Wiki Remove and replace breast implants

[aprram77]

When the physician removes breast implants and replaces them with new ones what cpt codes should I be billing? Do I use 19325 & 19330 both? Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks!

You would use 19340 following mastopexy, mastectomy or in reconstruction.

You would use 19325 for mammplasty, augmentation with prosthetic implant.
