Wiki Lip??

[RADCODER]

Here is a good one..
Anyone know how they would code for an US soft tissue of the lip? Technically the lip is not an extremity, correct?
Thanks,

It is not an extremity, as close as I can get would be 76536 or unlisted.

I would lean more towards unlisted.

I would lean on the side of 76536. The lip is soft tissue of the head. The codes specifically says soft tissue of the head and neck.
