Physician performed C5-6 discetomy, C6 partial corpectomy (removing more than 50% vertebral body) and instrumented fusion. Also C6-7 discectomy and instrumented fusion.
Disctomy is included in both ACDF and corpectomy.
Would this procedure be coded as 22551 (C6-7), 22554-59 and 63081-59 (C5-6) along with the instrumentation code 22845?
Thank you.
