My question is which CPT do I use for different areas? The peritoneum is the lining of the abdomen and abdominal cavity, but what if the patient's abscess is in a specific organ?
I have a patient with a liver abscess. The radiologist performed a percutaneous drainage (with drainage catheter). I coded 49080 with 77012 because he used CT guidance, was I correct? Thanks
