Can anyone tell me if a surgeon does an excision of pilonidal cyst with wound vac placement, is it correct to code 97605 or 97606 for the placement of the :confused:wound vac?
 
Yes those are the correct codes. You would have to add the length x's the width x's depth to find the correct code.
 
Just curious! What if the wound vac is being placed by someone other than the surgeon?
