Our physician performed a left heart cath 93458 same day as a Temporary Pacemaker Placement 33210 and Arterial Line 36140. According to the NCCI edit, Temporary Pacemaker and Arterial Line are all bundled into the CATH 93458.
Under what circumstances would it be appropriate to add a -59 modifier to the pacemaker and the arterial line or are there no exceptions to the rule?
