Ileostomy Closure and Ventral Hernia Repair

One of my surgeons went in to do an ileostomy closure on a pt that had a lap right colectomy in June which was complicated by an anastomic leak requiring reoperation and end ileotomy. When she went in to do the Ileostomy Closure she also ended up doing a Ventral Hernia repair and Unilateral V-Y Advancement Flap. Can I bill for the Ventral Hernia Repair? Thank you for any help given.
