If this is the same lesion then you can bill only one unless the lesion is documented as being large and biopsies were taken at different areas if that is the case then you can code two different codes but you will need a 59 modifier and the dx cannot be the 238.2 as that is a dx can only come from a path report. the dx could be a 709.8 or wait for the path report. A procedure note would help.
