First ... I'm with Laura and Debra on this one.
Second ... if you packed the wound on the first procedure you should have coded 10061. Here's the lay description from Encoder Pro ...
The physician makes a small incision through the skin overlying an abscess for incision and drainage (e.g., carbuncle, cyst, furuncle, paronychia, hidradenitis). The abscess or cyst is opened with a surgical instrument, allowing the contents to drain. The lesion may be curetted and irrigated. The physician leaves the surgical wound open to allow for continued drainage. For complicated or multiple cysts in 10061, the physician may place a Penrose latex drain or gauze strip packing to allow continued drainage. Complicated cysts may require later surgical closure. Report 10060 for incision and drainage of a simple or single abscess. (emphasis added by FTB)
The increased RVUs (and reimbursement) for 10061 vs 10060 helps to cover the cost of the additional work that may be required during the postoperative period.
Hope that helps.
