Your code selection is going to depend on the length and the depth of the wound repair. A simple repair would be a 1200X with the last digit determined by the length. An intermediate repair would be 1203X with the last digit determined by the length.

What is the CPT code for Simple repair of 2-inch laceration of the right foot discontinued due to near-syncope physician's office?

The CPT code for a simple repair of a laceration is typically 12001 for a laceration of 2.5 cm (about 1 inch) or less, and 12002 for a laceration of 2.5 cm to 7.5 cm (about 1 to 3 inches). Since the laceration is 2 inches, you would use CPT code 12002. However, if the procedure was discontinued due to near-syncope, it may be appropriate to use an additional modifier (like -53 for discontinued procedure) to indicate that the procedure was not completed. Always consult the latest coding guidelines for specific circumstances.
