In this case, the patient underwent both a simple repair for multiple skin lacerations on the left foot and toes and an intermediate repair for a deeper laceration on the left heel. The use of modifier 12002 highlights the complexity of the heel repair in contrast to the simpler closure of the other lacerations. Proper coding ensures accurate billing and reflects the level of care provided.
