Good Afternoon!
My provider usually does an aortoilliac angiogram during catherization. He wanted me to check if we could charge for it. My reseach tells me that if it is used to determing position of deployed angioseal, we cannot charge. We can charge ONLY if aortoilliac angiogram was used for diagnostic purposes.
Below is what is stated in his procedural note:
"aortoilliac angiogram was performed demonstrating good position of the sheath for deployment of a 6-french angio-seal".
To me, we cannot charge for this, as it was not done for diagnostic purposes.
I would appreciate input. Thank you.
