We are having a discussion in regard to sharp debridement of burns prior to application of STSG. According to CPT 15002-15005 are for surgical preparation or creation of site by excision of open wounds, burn eschar, or scar…100 sq cm or 1% of body area of infant or child. With these codes we use the burn ICD 10 codes. There are LCD’s for this code that do not include the ICD 10 codes for burns. What CPT codes should be used for this? My surgeons sometime will debride as much as 1800 sq cm or more at a time prior to the application of the grafts. Thank you for any help!
