I'm fairly new to orth coding, and am trying to understand shoulder debridement's. I know that if they do a rotator cuff repair I can't count the debridement of the cuff in the 29823 same with the bicep tenodesis. The one I'm trying to figure out is debridement of the bursa. If they do a subacromial decompression, and also list under the debridement subacromial and subdeltiod bursa. Are subacromial and subdeltiod two separate structures? Or are they considered one? Thank you in advance for your help!
