Hello
I just started coding wound care charts on the facility side and the APC coordinator keep asking me for missing procedures (debridements) that I think should be coded on the physician side. Should she know this? Those codes are usually already there sometimes. When to use 97597 vs 11042/11045 etc. codes?
Thanks
Tamara
