A New World Record [editorial]
Code for perineoplasty depends on setting
If a repair only is documented, your other possibility is to use codes 12001–12004 (simple repair of superficial wounds of scalp, neck, axillae, external genitalia, trunk and/or extremities [including hands and feet]; 2.5 cm or less up to 12.5 cm). These codes do have a practice expense differential when the procedure is carried out in the office. Like the perineoplasty code, this code series has a 10-day global period.
