Airway Valves Placed In Another Lung Lobe

Alabama rates for HCPCS 31651

Places one-way valves in the airways of a further lobe of the lung, working through a scope passed down the windpipe. The valves let trapped air escape but not return, so an over-inflated section deflates and healthier lung has room to work. It is billed in addition to the main procedure.
