Pennsylvania rates for HCPCS 49553

Surgery for a first-time hernia in the groin just below the crease of the thigh, where tissue has pushed through and become stuck, or where its blood supply is being cut off. The trapped tissue is freed and assessed, any bowel that has lost its blood supply is dealt with, and the weak spot is closed. It is usually treated urgently.
