This code 93656 states "a fib by ablation BY PULMONARY VEIN ISOLATION." The code 93657 states AFTER COMPLETION OF PULMONARY VEIN ISOLATION. My question is what if a patient has had the 93656 procedure, but comes in six months later and there is not pulmonary vein isolation performed again, just the ADDITIONAL LINEAR ALBATION (93657)---what do I bill? 93657 is an add on and can't be billed, but 93656 states BY PULM VEIN ISOLATION and that would not be done in this additional session. What code(s) are supposed to be billed?
