I have a DIPS procedure. Do I code the 37250 for the IVUS along with the 37182? Since IVUS is what differentiates DIPS from TIPS I think it should be coded but cannot find any information to verifiy it.
It is coming up as an edit for physician bill that it is missing the primary procedure when 37182 is the primary procedure. Any ideas?

For the TIPS procedure, all imaging is part of the procedure code 37182.
Thanks,
