Hi, how would I code "Lumbar Laminectomy w/fusion & internal fixation? I'm trying to code for the anesthesia for this procedure (I don't have op-report), I was thinking of 22630 but I don't know if the internal fixation is already included with this code or I need to use an extra code.

Thanks!
Erika.
