Open Shoulder Stabilization Surgery With Bone Transfer

West Virginia rates for HCPCS 23462

This is an open surgical repair for a shoulder that repeatedly slips out of its socket.

It is a more involved reconstruction than a simple soft-tissue repair, used for shoulders with significant or repeated instability.
