I need your help with 97597.
97597 LT
97597 RT
or
97597-50

Neither.
Skin has no laterality, it is one continuous organ, so you can't assign a left or right side to it, nor can you use a 50 modifier, because that indicates bilateral procedure. You use 97597 for the first 20 square centimeters debrided of skin, regardless of where it is, then if you go over debriding 20 square centimeters, you use the add on code 97598 for the next 20 square centimeters or part thereof.

Can you give me example for 97579?
-
Now I am confused...in your first reply you posted the code description of the 97597. In your second reply, you asked for an example of 97579. Did you mean 97597, and if so, the code description you previously posted basically answers your question. Here is an article that helps:
