Hello everyone,
I have a provider that had a patient come in with a foreign body in the cornea. No incision was used. The provider removed it with a Qtip. I was looking at CPT 65220, however it states the use of a beveled edge of a needle is used to remove. Should they code an E/M service and not a procedure code?
Thank you for your help!
