Lumbar Drain Repositioning

Date: Jan 11, 2024

Question:

We are trying to figure out what code we would use for repositioning of lumbar drain with fluoroscopic guidance. The drain was manipulated and slightly withdrawn from the spinal canal. Location confirmed by fluoroscopy. What would you recommend coding? Thanks!
