Please help!

Which codes would you recommend for right mini thoracotomy with segmental resection of middle lobe and upper lobe of right lung with extensive repair.

Thanks for your help!
 
Hi,

These can be a challenge! There is not a code under the "Incision" Thoracotomy section including 'segmental resection,' look at 32480 - 32484.

Hope that helps
