Removal of Lipomas
« on: July 22, 2019, 04:22:09 PM »
I have a physician who removed 50 lipomas using liposuction from the trunk and upper extremity. Each was 1 to 2 cms in size....how should this be coded?

Based on what you stated, I believe the correct way to code it would be using the 11402 cpt code with 50 in the units.
