Cpt 63047

Hello, Anggand,
I need more information to answer your question. What is the reason you need to
"liken" a code to 63047?
CPT 63047 reports a lumbar laminectomy for decompression. CPT 63042 reports a redo laminotomy, usually for a herniated disk. These do not describe the same procedure. What did your surgeon do?
