For sutures being removed from a chin laceration, and the wound care is cpt code 97602 the proper code? This code was denied, because the 879.8 doesn't support medical necessity for this code. I'm thinking it should be 12002, so any help would be greatly appreciated.
This is what was billed out, and the size of the laceration was 3cm
99212-25
97602
