CPT code 14040, which pertains to the repair of a complex defect, is generally considered bundled with CPT code 67971, which involves a procedure for eyelid ptosis. According to the guidelines of the American Medical Association and the National Correct Coding Initiative, when two procedures are performed together and one is considered part of the other, the bundling rules typically apply. Therefore, code 14040 would not be separately billable when performed in conjunction with 67971. Always verify with the latest coding guidelines or payer policies for any updates or exceptions.
