The three levels of repair or closure typically refer to the processes involved in fixing or restoring tissue after injury. The first level is primary closure, where the edges of a wound are directly approximated and sutured together. The second level is secondary closure, which allows the wound to heal from the inside out, often resulting in a larger scar. The third level, tertiary closure, involves initially leaving the wound open for a period before closing it surgically, usually due to the risk of infection or contamination.

Patient undergoes simple repair of multiple skin lacerationleft foot and toes patient also undergoes intermediate repair of left heel laceration cpt modifier 12002.1?
The CPT modifier 12002 indicates an intermediate repair of a wound, specifically for lacerations that are deeper and require more complex closure techniques, such as sutures. 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.
