Wiki outfracture of submucous resection inferior turbinate

[coder067]

Would this surgery be coded 30140?

Thanks

Look at 30930. -50 if both right and left....

Could you post the scrubbed op note? Sounds like both, actually.

Resection would be 30140 while outfracture would be 30930. If both were done, then you would just bill 30140 as it will encompass the lesser code.
