Is any possible to code both CPT 10060 with 12001?

"I & D of abscess or cyst – simple 10060, or complex 10061?

Complex usually involves packing and/or drains, possibly infection, amount of bleeding or depth of wound. The physician should determine if simple or complex. (remember global days)

If a cyst is removed refer to “excision” codes 114XX

If layered suture repair is required, look at additional codes "



And the two did not show up together in this doc: https://www.optum360coding.com/upload/pdf/3024/Medicare Correct Coding Gd.pdf
