The joint replacement surgeons in our hospital facility are interested in a newer therapy for patients getting knee replacements. The information provided was in regards to Iovera. The coding & reimbursement information from the company instructs us to use CPT codes 64640 or 64624 (includes imaging). From what I am researching there has been a lot of confusion as to the appropriate code to use for this technique.
Category III code of 0441T- Ablation, percutaneous, cryoablation, includes imaging guidance: lower extremity distal/peripheral nerve. Would this Category III code be more appropriate?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
