Destruction Of A Mid-Sized Skin Cancer, Body Or Limbs

Nebraska rates for HCPCS 17262

This is a procedure that destroys a cancerous skin lesion on the trunk, arms, or legs, using a method such as scraping, freezing, burning, or laser rather than cutting it out with a scalpel. It's used for a medium-sized lesion, larger than the smallest lesions treated this way but smaller than the largest. It is chosen when the lesion type and location make destruction an appropriate treatment instead of surgical excision.
