Wiki Hip arthroscopy help please

[Desperate Denise]

I am new to hip arthroscopy coding so any help would be greatly appreciated. Two of the doctors did the same procedures 3 times this week and I am not sure what is billable without unbundling.

The procedures were left hip arthroscopy with labral repair, acetabuloplasty and femoral neck osteoplasty.

Any assistance will be greatly appreciated.

Happy and Healthy New Year!!!

Thank you.

29916 = Labral repair. 29915 = acetabuloplasty (Pincer) and 29914 = femoral osteoplasty (CAM lesion). 29915 + 29916 cannot be billed together. Both have same RVU and pretty much same reimbursement from carriers.
