Destruction Of A Small Skin Cancer, Trunk Or Limb

South Dakota rates for HCPCS 17260

A cancerous growth on the trunk, an arm or a leg is destroyed where it sits, using freezing, an electric current, a laser, a chemical agent or scraping, instead of being cut out and stitched closed. This applies to the smallest growths treated this way; bigger ones are handled by more involved versions of the same treatment. Destroying a precancerous spot is a separate service.
