Cervical Plexus Division Procedure Overview
This code group includes procedures that divide the cervical plexus, a component of the peripheral nervous system supplying the neck and portions of the shoulder and head. These operations involve surgically separating nerve fibers or nerve branches within the cervical plexus without drainage. Accurate coding of these division procedures is important for inpatient reimbursement because it documents the specific root operation and anatomical target, which affects case mix group and payment.
