Removal of Part of One Thyroid Lobe

New Mexico rates for HCPCS 60210

Removes part of one of the two lobes of the thyroid gland in the neck, sometimes together with the narrow bridge of tissue joining the two lobes. It is used when a nodule or area of concern sits within one lobe and the rest of the gland is healthy. Leaving the remaining thyroid in place means hormone production often continues normally.
