Destruction Of A Skin Cancer, Trunk Or Limb

Louisiana rates for HCPCS 17263

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, rather than being cut out and stitched closed. This version covers a mid-range size, bigger than the smallest growths treated this way and smaller than the largest. Destroying a precancerous spot is a separate service.
