Hi Everyone, one of our physicians did a spermatocelectomy with cold
plasma coagulation in the ASC. Op note says the spermatocele was identified using cold plasma coagulation. Have never heard of this-wondering if anyone knows if this is something that can be billed for by the physician ??

Appreciate any info
Thanks,Rebecca

This is a technique for intraoperative bleeding contol. It is a contactless small jet of helium that the doctor uses during surgery. You can find a couple good videos of it being used on YouTube as well as some info on the website of the manufacturer. I just did a google search and found both in a few seconds. :)

Since this is just hemostasis, it would not be separately billable.
