Open Inguinal Hernia Repair, First-Time

Kentucky rates for HCPCS 49505

A surgeon repairs a groin hernia, where tissue has pushed through a weak spot in the abdominal wall, using an open surgical incision rather than small laparoscopic ports. This version is for a hernia that has not been repaired before and can still be pushed back into place before surgery. Mesh may be used to reinforce the area, depending on the case.
