The surgery cost can be different depending on the specific procedure, the surgeon performing the procedure, and the geographic location where the surgery is being performed. Here are some estimated ranges for popular plastic surgery procedures in the USA:
The current procedural terminology (CPT) codes are essential to identify medical procedures and services, including plastic surgery procedures. The specific CPT code used by plastic surgery billing services depends upon the type of procedure being performed. Here are a few examples of CPT codes for common plastic surgery procedures:
ICD-10 codes, or International Classification of Diseases, Tenth Revision codes, are codes used to classify diseases and medical conditions rather than procedures. Therefore, there is no specific ICD-10 code for plastic surgery. However, ICD-10 codes may be used to document any medical conditions or diagnoses that may have led to the decision to undergo plastic surgery. For example, if a patient has a breast reduction procedure to alleviate back pain caused by large breasts, the ICD-10 code for back pain may be included in the medical record along with the CPT code for the breast reduction procedure.
CPT code 15877 in billing services for plastic surgery refers to the surgical procedure known as "liposuction, one or more areas." which is a cosmetic surgery procedure that helps overcome excess fat deposits from various areas of the body, including the abdomen, hips, thighs, buttocks, upper arms, and chin. During liposuction, a small incision is made in the skin, and a thin tube, called a cannula, is inserted into the fatty tissue. The cannula is then used to suction out excess fat, contouring the body and improving its shape.
