[Shirleybala]

Hi all:
I got a report like this,I dont get code for this one
Can i code like this 10160, 76942-26, 77002-26
Pls confirm.

Ultrasound and fluoroscopically guided aspiration and
drainage of an abscess in the right neck. 5 cc of pus were sent
for culture

Hi,

I think those are appropriate codes, as we don't have separate code for aspiration abscess for neck.
