Deep Neck Or Chest Wall Abscess Drainage

Wyoming rates for HCPCS 21502

This procedure drains a deep collection of pus or blood in the soft tissues of the neck or chest wall, and includes removing a small portion of a rib when needed to fully reach and treat the infected area. It is used for infections that go beyond what can be managed with antibiotics alone or a simple, shallow drainage procedure. The area is typically left open or drained to allow continued healing.
