For example, a surgeon documents bilateral percutaneous vertebroplasty at vertebral segments T12 and L1. Proper coding is 22510, 22512.
When reporting vertebroplasty, code selection depends on the location and number of vertebral bodies treated. Choose a single “initial level” code based on the location of the first vertebral body treated:
Percutaneous vertebroplasty codes include the two procedures most commonly performed during the same session—imaging guidance and bone biopsy (e.g., Biopsy, bone, trocark or needle; deep (eg, vertebral body, femur)—and therefore you may not code seperately for them at the same level.
Kyphoplasty Is Like Vertebroplasty “Plus”. Percutaneous vertebral augmentation (a.k.a., kyphoplasty or balloon-assisted percutaneous vertebroplasty ) is a similar to vertebroplasty, but includes the use of an inflatable balloon to “jack up” the damaged vertebra (e) prior to methylmethacrylate injection.
