I work for a Bariatric surgeon who place's and removes Jackson-Pratt drainage tubes. I don't know the correct code for the placement and removal.
we just started this practice, and I have not had to use these codes before.
Does anyone know how to code this?
Thanks to anyone who can help.
 
Hi flmoore5, your msg regarding Drain placement/removal is from 2007, have you find the code? I code anesthesia and can't find the appropiate surgical code.

Thanks,
Erika.
