Question
- Why is this abscess drainage in the infection section? Should it not be in the procedures? We have an infection code for Intracranial/subdural or epidural abcess or septic intracanial throm already.
None of our other abscess drainage procedures are in the infection section. This is inconsistent. --LKolesar 13:51, 2016 February 19 (CST)
