What it is
This is the first repair of a hernia in the front wall of the abdomen, such as an umbilical (belly button), ventral or incisional hernia, when the total defect is under 3 cm and the tissue can be pushed back in. The code applies to open, laparoscopic or robotic repair.
What the price covers
The facility price covers the operating room and recovery; for this code, mesh placement is part of the repair, though the mesh itself may be listed as a supply. The surgeon's fee and anesthesia are billed separately.
