Cutting The Inner Ear Balance Nerve

Indiana rates for HCPCS 69950

An operation that reaches the inner ear through an opening made in the skull and cuts the nerve carrying balance signals from one ear to the brain. Silencing the faulty signals stops severe attacks of spinning dizziness while the hearing nerve alongside it is preserved. It is reserved for disabling vertigo that has not responded to medication or other treatment.
