I realize placing the graft is included in the procedure but can we not bill for the harvesting of the graft?

No, I would think it's all included/bundled in.

All Im going to say is per NCCI, 21235 (Ear cartilage graft) is not inclusive with 69631 (Repair eardrum structures). Thats not to say that a commercial insurance company will deny as being bundled. Thats it, nothing more. Just the facts per NCCI. My specialty is not ENT or surgery.
