When reporting a combined ventral and umbilical hernia repair, what CPT code would you report 49560 with 49568 or 49652? I am being told we report 49560 with 49568 because it is the more extensive procedure? Please advise. The umbilical hernia wasn't an incidental finding it was scheduled as a combined repair.
