Deep Foreign Body Removal From the Foot

Idaho rates for HCPCS 28192

In this procedure, a doctor surgically removes an object such as a piece of glass, metal, or wood that has become lodged deep within the tissue of the foot. Because the object sits below the surface, this typically requires a more involved surgical approach than removing something just under the skin.
