Hello all
I received a several replies regarding polishing metal coding for noncorrosive finish. Most folks say I am wrong to code for polishing, that there needs to be some kind of material added and polishing doesn’t count. I guess I’ll have to stick to powder coating, which should be accepted.
I also had a couple people address the medical necessity for such a procedure. Is it medically necessary? Probably not unless it comes into contact with urine or other corrosive materials. That was a question I did not think of at the time.  Thanks to those that replied.
