Would 29855 work for distal tibial fracture? I’m thinking that I need percutaneous pinning code but I can’t find one for the distal tibial fracture. Op note states that the reduction was through the scope and the anterior ridge revealed some increased displacement so a small open incision was then placed to remove invaginated periosteum. then stab incision was made to place K-wire. Can anyone help?
percutaneous pinning of lesser toe
Hi
Physician performed closed reduction of lesser toe with percutaneous pinning. I can only find a CPT code to report this in the great toe. We tried to authorize an unlisted procedure, but the carrier is telling me that there is a code for what we did. The only code I can find similar is for the closed reduction of a lesser toe, but the percutaneous pinning is not named in the description.
CPT 28525 states OPEN treatment of fracture, phalanx or phalanges, other than great toe, includes internal fixation. This was not OPEN treatment. Unless they consider breaking of the skin with a k-wire to be open treatment.
Any help would be appreciated. Thank you!!
