RFA access. Pigtail cath tracked into the aortic arch where an arch aortogram was done which demonstrated a type 1-2 bovine arch of the LCCA. Pigtail was exchanged and tracked up into the left subclavian into the ostium of the Left vertebral and injection was done. Catheter repositioned into the RCCA and injection was done. Catheter repositioned in Right vertebral artery and injection done. Cath then repositioned into the LCCA and a 2nd order injection was done.
The bovine arch really confuses me. I'm not confident of my code selection at all and I can't find any awesome resouces that explain how to choose codes when he does it like this. I'm sure I'm off but this is what I get:
Lt Vertebral - 36216/75685-26,LT
Rt CCA - 36217
Rt Vertebral - This is where I get confused - do I use 36217-59?
Lt CCA - 36218
75680 - 26
75685 - 26, RT
75685 - 26, LT
75650 - 26
Please help!
Any tips or information about the bovine arch is very much appreciated!
