Cryoablation

Question:

I was told we still need to use the unlisted code 30999 for cryoablation of the nasal nerve.

Answer:

You no longer report cryoablation of the nasal nerve with an unlisted code.  In 2024, a new code was created to report Nasal cryotherapy (31243), also known as nasal cryoablation or cold therapy, as a noninvasive treatment to stop symptoms of chronic rhinitis.
