Physician performed a Mini Open Percutaneous Release of TWO digits for Dupuytren Contracture. It was coded as 26045 and 26045,51-the carrier is Medicare. Has anyone had the issue with this being denied by Medicare? There was no Z-plasty done therefore it could not be billed out as 26123 w/add-on code for additional digit, 26125. Any suggestions? Please help! TIA
