My question relates to a "Repair of abdominal defect with Primacol bioprosthesis", after the removal of Vicryl mesh was performed, which had originally been placed the day before. The DR wanted me to code the Primacol as 15330 & 15331 however the insurance co has denied it as "noncovered". Does anyone have any other coding ideas, or suggestions for the appeal?

Thank you!
Cathy
