Knee Surface Reshaping With Tissue Debridement

Rhode Island rates for HCPCS 27443

This procedure smooths and reshapes damaged areas of the bone surfaces inside the knee joint, along with removing damaged joint lining tissue. It is intended to relieve pain and improve joint function without replacing the joint. This differs from a full knee replacement, which substitutes the joint surfaces entirely with an artificial implant.
