help is there a generic code for as my doctor puts it cementing...:confused:
 
Hi, can you please provide more information regarding the condition being treated, the procedure report and the anatomical location of the injection of bone cement?

There are 2 Category III codes for sacroplasty: 0200T unilateral and 0201T bilateral. EncoderPro's more detailed description states that "sterile biomaterial such as polymethyl methacrylate is injected from one side or both sides into the sacrum and sacral insufficiency fracture and acts as bone cement."
