Rod and Screw Fixation of the Spine

Vermont rates for HCPCS 22842

Metal rods are anchored to the back of the spine with screws, hooks, or wires at each level, holding the vertebrae still so a fusion can knit solidly. This version covers a span of three to six vertebrae. It is performed as part of a larger spinal operation and billed in addition to it.
