Use CPT 22862 for the revision including replacement of total disc arthroplasty (artificial disc), anterior approach, single interspace; lumbar. Use CPT 22864 for the removal of total disc arthroplasty (artificial disc), anterior approach, single interspace; cervical.
What are the CPT codes for Acdf?
Things to keep in mind when assigning codes 22510-22515:
It's better if the physician documents the "clocking" positions rather than just general "Anterior, Posterior" and so forth. This is true for the sutures and labral tape as well. Code 29806 would cover anterior and posterior but modifier -22 may or may not be appropriate. I would not use it simply because the work was performed in both areas.

Post operative instructions after anterior cervical discectomy and fusion or. total disc replacement. Overview. ACDF is anterior cervical discectomy and fusion, which is a minimally invasive surgery done on the neck to relieve symptoms (neck and arm pain) from a degenerative disc or bulging disc.
A cervical disc displacement occurs when there is a herniation or protrusion between discs in the spine. The bones that form the spine, referred to as vertebrae, feature discs between each bone to protect and allow for flexible movement of the back.
[4] Cervical disc herniation is the result of the displacement of the nucleus pulposus of the intervertebral disc, which may result in impingement of these traversing nerves as they exit the neural foramen or directly compressing the spinal cord contained within the spinal canal.
