Without seeing the documentation
If the documentation supports a siginficantly identifiable separate E/M visit, then by all means code it as such ... with a -25 modifier.
You'll definitely code the appropriate wound repair code - CPT 1200x. You'll need a -77 modifier if it's within 10 days of original repair. I would use the finger laceration dx for the repair.
If you have a significantly separate E/M per your documentation, I think your V58.32 might be accurate.
All above depends, of course, on the documentation.
