Voice Box Exam With Spacer Placement

Alabama rates for HCPCS 31527

A procedure in which a rigid viewing instrument is passed through the mouth to look directly at the voice box, and a shaped spacer is left sitting between the vocal cords. The spacer keeps raw surfaces from healing against each other and forming a band of scar tissue that would narrow the airway and change the voice. It is done after an injury or an operation inside the voice box.
