Can I bill for closing a 1.0cm wound with steri-strips? What code do you suggest.
In addition a soft metal finger brace was applied. Is that billiable?


Thank you in advance
 
[FONT=&quot]From the CPT book: Wound closure utilizing adhesive strips as the sole repair material should be coded using the appropriate E/M code.

I'm not sure about splint, though its likely bundled as well.[/FONT]
