The link describes this procedure which seems like more work than a "regular lap chole" even though some of the gallbladder remains.

Perhaps your surgeon's documentation does indeed describe more work......you might consider appending a -22 modifier.
Subtotal is kind of a misnomer as it means less than the whole, yet it describes a "difficult" procedure.
