![]() Get detailed information on a broad range of Interventional Radiology and Cardiovascular procedures and the guidelines for proper coding with Complete IR and Cardiovascular Coding! Package includes 23 individual self-study medical coding elearning modules. So, again, for this case, we would only report 93656. Likewise, unless the patient has history of atrial flutter or has atrial flutter during the case, we do not report CPT code 93655 (for empiric ablation of the CTI). We do not report a code for other empiric lines in the left atrium after PVI other than for above. We also report CPT code 93657 after PVI if they are doing CFAE ablations (which is new for 2020).Īlso new for 2020 is an increase in the MUE for CPT code 93657 to 2. We report CPT code 93656 for PVI (pulmonary vein isolation).Īfter completion of a PVI, if the patient is documented to remain in atrial fibrillation after the PVI, then we additionally report add-on CPT code 93657 for additional lines. Intervenní akutní kardiologie Intervenní akutní kardiologie ISBN INTERVENTIONAL CARDIOLOGY AND ACUTE CARDIAC CARE Roník volume Abstrakta XII. Additional linear ablation was performed at the left atrial (LA) lateral wall from the mitral annulus to the LPV anterior carine to achieve bidirectional LA anterior block.ĩ3656 for the PVI then 93655 x 2 or 93655 & 93657? Chronic atrial flutter Paroxysmal atrial flutter ICD-10-CM I48.92 is grouped within Diagnostic Related Group (s) (MS-DRG v40. Additional linear ablation was performed at the left atrial (LA) roof to achieve bidirectional LA roof conduction block.ģ. study of either CTI-dependent AFl or CTI permeability, accompanied by an electrocardiogram. Pulmonary vein antral ablation was performed to isolate PV antral regions with bilateral PV isolation (PVI) confirmed on HDX mapping electrogram.Ģ. Keywords: Typical atrial flutter, Ablation, Quality of life. How would you code the following ablation procedure?ġ. By David Zielske, MD, CIRCC, COC, CCVTC, CCC, CCS, RCC
