Wiki Jackson-pratt drain

Messages

I'm not sure I can bill for these drain placements but I will ask. Patient came in and had a hematoma evacuation of left calf with debridements done and placement of two Jackson-Pratt drains. Is the placement of these drains included in the surgical code for hematoma evacuation? And if billable what code do I use?

Thanks,
