Hello all,
Had amputation on the left index finger (26951-F1) but at the end of the op note states
"Then 2 nonabsorbable sutures in the adjacent long finger nail bed were removed and a light dressing applied on long finger"

This procedure was done w/ MAC. Can I bill for this? 15851 states (other than local).....
Thanks for any help!
:)
