the surgeon has performed the following procedures

2. Repair of nasal vestibular stenosis using an ear cartilage graft.
3. Cosmetic rhinoplasty.
4. Left inferior turbinectomy.
for the following diagnoses
1. Posttraumatic nasal deformity.
2. Nasal obstruction.
3. Nasal valve collapse.
4. Request for cosmetic change with excellent appearance of nose
i have chosen CPT® 21235, 30465, 30130 for procedures 1, 2, and 4. i'm little confused over 3rd procedure Cosmetic rhinoplasty as per CCI edits.
And, what are the icd codes for Posttraumatic nasal deformity and nasal valve collapse?
i think 30420 will cover all services..
