I do LITTLE ortho so I need a LOT of help! ![Smile :) :)](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
I have to code an L3-L4 laminectomy w/decompression (spinal stenosis) and chose CPT 63005; can someone confirm if this is correct?
Also, for an L2-L3 laminectomy with diskectomy, I'm confused as the codes with diskectomy only reference "laminotomy"--Which I think is fine BUT could someone verify the CPT for this part?
God Bless!
