Patient has both a distal radius fracture and a distal ulna fracture that need to be repair. My physician is asking whether to code 25607 and 25545 or just the one CPT 25575. I'm feeling like the two codes 25607 and 25545 would be more appropriate since the fractures are both distal and not shaft. In the past, I was told that CPT 25545 is for the distal ulna. Would anyone be willing to give me an opinion on this?
Thanks for much and have a wonderful Monday!
