Gently debrided them today with gauze and peroxide, cleansed them and applied bacitracin gel to each-- is what our MD performed.
This is what was debrided:
Loss of skin tissue substantially, appears to be full thickness. The areas are open.
Which CPT fits best? I know 97602 for some insurance companies denies, so I'm looking for a different code.
Thank you
