One of our doctors is charging 27786 for "tx of closed malleolus,simple" all he did was put on a aircast. My procedure book says 27786 "the physician treats a fx without open surgery or and manipulation of the bones". So my question is can he charge this code? It sounds like he can even though he just put on a aircast. It just seems like a lot of money for just putting on a aircast. Thanks
