About Hematoma or Seroma Drainage

Hematoma or seroma drainage removes a collection of blood, serum, or other fluid that has built up under the skin after an injury, procedure, or surgery. Depending on the size and location, the clinician may use an incision or needle aspiration to relieve pressure and help the area heal.

Understanding Your Bill

Bills may differ based on whether the collection is drained through an incision or by aspiration, whether imaging guidance is used, and whether the care occurs in an office, urgent care, emergency, or hospital outpatient setting.
