Dear friend,
Thanks for your reply,
The code 32998 is the Ablation of lung by Radio frequency method. I'm searching for the Cryoablation of lung mass code:If you have any idea about the code , kindly let me know about the codes & update. Shall i take it as Unlisted procedure (32999)
Thanks & regards,
Titus sam.

I'm with you I can't find anything so I guess you'll have to use the unlisted procedure code......I would recommend that you ask for a number to be listed in the c 3 list if its used enough it may be listed in our level 1 codes at some point... sue

As far as I know, there is not a specific CPT code at this time for cryoablation of a lung mass. You'll need to use the unlisted code 32999. You'll also want 76940.
