Synovial Cyst Rupture

Date: May 6, 2014

Question:

When I attended the seminar in Maryland you stated that there may be a new code added for a synovial cyst rupture. The interventional neuroradiologist I work with is using this code with epidural injections. I am currently using code 22899 (unlisted procedure, spine) to code the synovial cyst rupture.
