Wiki Unlisted Code

Does anyone know a better code rather than 29999 for 'removal of hardware' from a prior surgery for rotator cuff? Oxford is busting chops on it...

thanks

Have you looked at 20680?

I agree with Karen, 20680 is the appropriate code.

removal of hardware

I use 20670 or 20680 (deep)...
