is debridement of skin fissure of foot included in E/M or can i use 97597
 
Need more information than that. Size. Tissue depth. Type of debridement. What was used to perform the debridement.

Just a heads up. When it comes to debridement physicians documentation is usually lacking the necessary information in order to code debridement.
