Wiki Mesh Replacement w/o Hernia Repair

[liloe517]

I have a provider that removed an infected abdominal mesh and replaced it with a biologic mesh. Both the 11008 and the 15777 that would match these procedures are add on codes. No hernia was repaired so I am not sure what code to bill. Has anyone else had this situation?

I have!

I billed 49402 (removal of peritoneal foreign body from peritoneal cavity) with 15777.

Hope it helps!
