Wiki Cpt 11750 and 64450

[susie09]

Hello, can you please help on these codes, my physician is removing a partial nail using sharp clippers after separating from the nail, he is also using Marcaine for block anesthesia, I would code this as 11730 and the anesthesia would be included, any suggestions. thanks
