Tendon Fixation To Limit Hand Motion

Alaska rates for HCPCS 26474

This surgery anchors and fixes a tendon in the hand or finger in a set position through an open incision, rather than releasing or loosening it. It is used to stabilize a joint that is unstable or moves excessively, limiting unwanted motion by holding the tendon in place. This is done through direct surgical exposure of the tendon.
