Can we bill an I&D or should it be an E/M?
Left axilla shows a small soft lump about the size of a dime that feels like a sebaceous cyst. I cleaned it with Betadine, numbed with Lidocaine and made a small nik in it with a #11 blade. No pus or sebaceous material or anything returned. Cleansed with peroxide then applied antibiotic ointment and band aid. How should this be billed?
Thanks.
