Good morning, my physician inserted a SCS generator with leads, the 63685, and 63650 x 2. However, he had to have the patient go back into the OR and remove everything as the patient was having difficulty walking. I am asking how to bill this, as this was all done in one day. Can you get credit for the implant placement as reduced services, then bill the revision code 63688?
Thank you for your assistance.
