What it is
In this endoscopic procedure a small balloon is passed through the nose and inflated to widen the natural opening of the maxillary (cheek) sinus. It is used for chronic or repeated sinusitis that does not improve with medicine.
What the price covers
The listed price usually covers the procedure for one side; the balloon device may be listed as a separate supply. The surgeon and any anesthesia are billed separately.
Why prices differ
Prices differ sharply between procedures done in an ENT office under local anesthesia and those in a hospital or surgery center under general anesthesia.
What to ask
Ask whether the self-pay price for CPT 31295 is for one side or both, and whether the balloon device and the surgeon's fee are included.

Common questions
Does the price cover both sides?
No, the code is for one side. Treating both maxillary sinuses is billed as a bilateral procedure, and other sinuses have their own codes.
Can it be done in the office?
Yes, often under local anesthesia, though some patients have it in an operating room, especially with other sinus surgery.
