I have a couple coding issues that I'm stuck on. Any help would be appreciated.

The directions are to only code the procedures and office visits.

1.) Margaret Wilson, a 26-year-old mother of three (new patient), has routine screening mammography of both breasts. (You do not need to code the mammography). A shadow is visualized in the right breast. The physician performs a biopsy (needle core). The biopsy indicates malignancy. The patient agrees to and has a mastectomy (simple, complete) 1 week later.

The codes I have are 19100-RT, 19303-RT

2.) Removal of 180cm (squared) strawberry nevus of left cheek, auto graft with split-thickness skin graft of 180cm (squared).
