69210 Cerumen removal

How would you code the follow situation:

Doctor uses curette to remove impacted wax. During the procedure the dr. is not able to remove the curette. They then resort to an ear flush or lavage and the impacted wax is successfully removed.

1) can I code this with 69210 since the dr. spent time trying to remove wax with curette?


2) Is this now coded as a wash/lavage since that is how the final wax was removed?


thank you for your input
