Except that D7550 is removal of sloughed off bone due to infection and blood supply. The RVUs assigned to this for payment do not constitute removal of a simple bone spur.

    Depending on the carrier and utilization review guidelines for each carrier you may use either D7550 or D7530 for the procedure. We recommend you check with the carrier prior to claim submission.
