Hello!

Surgeon is excising a cyst off mandible and will take a piece of mandible as well. He will be harvesting a fat pad from the abdomen to fill space of excision. Is this separately billable or considered part of closure?
Looking at 20926 for graft, but not finding anything for placement of graft. 20926 lay description says placement of graft is separately billable. I'm leaning toward billing the graft, but considering the placement part of the closure. Thoughts? :confused:
