Common areas of confusion include CPT code 63042. Re-exploration at a level with a recurrent disc herniation can only use CPT code 63042. It should only be used after the global period for the first disc surgery has expired. Repeat facetectomy and lateral recess decompression at a level with a prior decompression must use CPT code 63047 if no disc work is per-formed. The presence of a lumbar disc herniation (722.1) drives the CPT code.Another common misconception is code 63047. This code can be used unilaterally or bilaterally as long as the decompression involves the lateral recess and foramen. Posterior fusion codes that involve disc preparation (22630,22633) already take into account the decompression work. Using ad-ditional decompression codes (63005, 63012, 63030,63042, 63047) is not al-lowed.
The use of posterior fusion codes that encompass disc work (eg, 22630 and 22633) already take into account the removal of lamina, facets and ligamen-tum flavum. The interbody fusion codes also were written assuming bilateral interbody placement which requires bilateral decompression. In cases that require decompression plus fusion (L4-5 spondylolisthesis with central and lateral recess stenosis), only the fusion codes can be used.
The new CPT code for use instead for the PLIF Posterior Lumbar Interbody Fusion procedure for 2012 would now be 22633 for an Arthrodesis, combined Posterior or Posterolateral Technique with Posterior Interbody Technique, including laminectomy and/or discectomy sufficient to prepare interspace (other than for decompression), single interspace and segment;
The 22610 code for an Arthrodesis (Fusion) using the Posterior or Posterolateral Technique, single level; Thoracic now states this code is done WITH the Lateral Transverse Technique (the code previously stated with or without).
Anthem Central Region bundles 63047 and 63048+ as incidental with 22630. Based on the Complete Global Service Data for Orthopaedic Surgery, CPT code 22630, code 63047 is listed as a service that is included when performing 22630. Based on the National Correct Coding Initiative Edits, code 63047 is listed as a component code to code 22630. Since 63048 is an add on code that only may be reported along with 63047, 63048 follows the same rationale that is used with 63047. Therefore, if 63047 and 63048+ are submitted with 22630—only 22630 reimburses
Based on the National Correct Coding Initiative Edits, code 63035 is not listed as a component code to code 63043. Based on the 2004 CPT manual code 63035+ is an add on code and is to be used in conjunction with codes 63020 and 63030.
Anthem Central Region does not bundle 63030 with 63044+. Based on the Complete Global Service Data for Orthopaedic Surgery manual, code 63030 is not listed as a service that is included or not included in the global Service of CPT Code: 63044. Based on the National Correct Coding Initiative Edits, code 63030 is not listed as a component code to code 63044. Therefore, if 63030 is submitted with 63044—both reimburse separately.
