Surgeon did an arthroscopic loose body removal; Open MPFL reconstruction; Open lateral retinacular release & Microfracture arthroplasty of the patella. Code 27437 looks to be the microfx arthroplasty. I'm looking at 27422 for MPFL reconstruction. 27425 LRL is inclusive in 27422 & 27437. 27422 looks to be inclusive in 27437. For this whole procedure I'm to code 27437?

Please help. Thank you.
