Amputation Of A Finger Or Thumb

New Jersey rates for HCPCS 26951

Removes a finger or thumb, or part of one, at a joint or through one of its small bones — most often after a severe injury or infection, or when an earlier injury has left a painful, useless digit. The cut nerve endings are trimmed back so they are less likely to form painful lumps in the scar, and the wound is then closed. It covers a single digit.
