I am not sure if the physician provided enough documentation to bill this but here is the reprot:
Procedure Performed: Arch Aortography, Bilateral Internal Carotid Angio
Summary
Arch Vessels: Left Internal Carotid: There was a 60% stenosis
Right Internal Carotid: There was a 85% stenosis. The lesion was irregularly contoured and calcified.
Aorta: Aortic arch: Normal. The segment was type A.
Procedure:
1. Right femoral artery access. The puncture site was infiltrated with local anesthetic. The vessel was accessed using the modifier Seldinger technique.
2. Arch aortography. A catheter was placed and contrast was injected.
3. Bilateral Internal Carotid Angio.
No complications.
Please help!
