Nerve Wrap Repair
Hello Coders!!
Is anyone familiar with use of a collagen nerve wrap for nerve repair? The surgeons have been given information to use CPT 64910 for use of nerve wrap/tube for repair, however, the dr actually repaired the nerve by suturing it and used the nerve wrap as reinforcement. In this particular case the nerve repaired was a common sensory nerve of the hand and so we feel 64834 should be the proper code in this case.
Would anyone agree???
Thank you!
