Drainage of abscess

Our surgeon did a laparoscopic appendectomy and drained an abscess of a right direct inguinal hernia. Is there a code to use for the drainage of the abscess, which was also done laparoscopically, or is this something that is bundled with the appendectomy?

No responses yet, can anyone help?
Thanks.
