Hi I need assistance with what is hopefully an easy one.
Pt went to ER after a fall (E885.9) and received 3 sutures to the hand due to a laceration (822.0). The pt followed up with PCP and had stitches removed.
Can I code V58.32 + 822.0 & E885.9 with a CPT for suture removal (??? i need help locating) Unfortunately I only have books and no fancy software.
Any help is appreciated! Thanks!!!
