Hi Guest!

D7286 - incisional biopsy of oral tissue-soft

Here are some CPT cross coding options for you:

40490 - Biopsy lip
40808 - Biopsy, vestibule of mouth
41108 - Biopsy of floor of mouth
41110 - Biopsy of tongue, anterior two-thirds
41105 - Biopsy of tongue, posterior one-third


Hope this helps!
