What CPT would you use for amputation of all toes 1-5?

Thanks,

Thanks,

I believe the code is each toe so you code it 5 times with the appropriate toe modifier attached to each one.

In addition to the toe modifiers, there are 3 toe amputation codes; 28810, 28820, and 28825 depending on where the toe is amputated.
