The patient came into ER had oozing and bleeding of the lips. Very stuck together. The physician under moderate sedation removed blood clot from lips and used some silver nitrate cautery sticks to gain control and hemostasis of the amount of the bloody ooze from the lower lip and then dressed with gauze. Would there be a cpt code for this? Would 40820 work or an unlisted?
thanks
