Wiki code for temporary cath removal

[arunp_001]

Hi,

Is there any code for temporary cath removal from the internal jugular vein (non-tunneled).

Also, doctor states in his physical exam as "Fluoroscopic assessment of the catheter demonstrates no change in position from the time of placement ." How to bill this fluoroscopic procedure.

Any help is greatly appreciated.
