Hello,
I am unsure if this is something that can be billed or not. The physician placed a T-tube into a colotomy to promote healing. The patient has been undergoing serial wound vac changes for a frozen abdomen. The T-tube was cut and placed into the colotomy and brought out through a separate incision onto the abdominal wall. Is this something that can be billed with the wound vac change? If so, would anyone have any idea what code would be used for this?
Thank you so much for any help with this one.
