I've posed this question before, but am still groping around for an appropriate way to code this.
The doctor is performing the above referenced procedure but without the tendon transplantation/transfer. He finishes the procedure by percutaneously placing a K-wire through the thumb metacarpal into the adjacent metacarpal.
I'm thinking of using 25447 alone (without 25310/26480) and attaching a mod.74.
Has anyone else encountered this situation and what could were used?
Thanks.
