Please help. Can I bill for all all of this? I have 93458-26, 92928-LC, 36215, 37205, 75960-26.

SUMMARY:

-- CORONARY CIRCULATION:
-- 2nd obtuse marginal: There was a 95 % stenosis. There was TIMI grade 2
flow through the vessel (partial perfusion). This lesion is a likely
culprit for the patient's anginal symptoms.

-- CARDIAC STRUCTURES:
-- Global left ventricular function was mildly depressed. EF calculated
by contrast ventriculography was 45 %.

-- HEMODYNAMICS:
-- Hemodynamic assessment demonstrates normal hemodynamics and borderline
systemic hypertension.

-- DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURES:
-- Access obtained under ultrasound guidance

-- 1ST LESION INTERVENTIONS:
-- A successful balloon angioplasty with stent was performed on the 99 %
lesion in the left subclavian artery. Following intervention there was an
excellent angiographic appearance with a 0 % residual stenosis.
-- A self-expanding EV3 stent was placed across the lesion and deployed.

-- 2ND LESION INTERVENTIONS:
-- A successful balloon angioplasty with stent was performed on the 95 %
lesion in the 2nd obtuse marginal. Following intervention there was an
excellent angiographic appearance with a 0 % residual stenosis.

-- 3RD LESION INTERVENTIONS:
-- A successful balloon angioplasty with stent was performed on the 95 %
lesion in the mid circumflex. Following intervention there was an
excellent angiographic appearance with a 0 % residual stenosis.

PROCEDURES PERFORMED:

-- Left heart catheterization with ventriculography.
-- Right coronary angiography.
-- Left coronary angiography.
-- Right subclavian angiography.
-- PTA.
-- Coronary Bare Metal Stent Placement.
-- Coronary Drug Eluding Stent Placement.
-- Coronary Stent Placement.
-- Intervention on left subclavian: balloon angioplasty, stent.
-- Intervention on OM2: balloon angioplasty, stent.
-- Intervention on mid circumflex: balloon angioplasty, stent.

INDICATIONS: Angina/MI: unstable angina.

HEMODYNAMICS: Hemodynamic assessment demonstrates normal hemodynamics and
borderline systemic hypertension.

VENTRICLES: Global left ventricular function was mildly depressed. EF
calculated by contrast ventriculography was 45 %.

CORONARY VESSELS: The coronary circulation is co-dominant. Ostial left
main: Normal. Proximal left main: Normal. Mid left main: Normal. Distal
left main: Normal. Proximal LAD: Normal. Mid LAD: Normal. Proximal
circumflex: Normal. Mid circumflex: Normal. There was a 95 % stenosis.
There was TIMI grade 2 flow through the vessel (partial perfusion). Distal
circumflex: Normal. 1st obtuse marginal: Normal. 2nd obtuse marginal:
There was a 95 % stenosis. There was TIMI grade 2 flow through the vessel
(partial perfusion). This lesion is a likely culprit for the patient's
anginal symptoms. Left AV groove artery: Normal. Proximal RCA: There was a
100 % stenosis.

ARCH VESSELS: Left subclavian: There was a 99 % stenosis. Right
subclavian: The vessel was medium to large sized and mildly tortuous.
Angiography showed multiple discrete lesions partial occlusion and
aneurysmal dilatation. There was a discrete 99 % stenosis. The lesion was
irregularly contoured and complex. An intervention was performed. Gradient
evaluation: 70 mmHg (peak resting). Mid right subclavian: There was a 95 %
stenosis at the site of a prior stent within the graft anastomosis. An
intervention was performed. Gradient evaluation: 70 mmHg (peak resting).
Distal right subclavian: There was a 80 % stenosis.

PROCEDURE: The risks and alternatives of the procedures and conscious
sedation were explained to the patient and informed consent was obtained.
Access obtained under ultrasound guidance The patient was brought to the
cath lab and placed on the table. The planned puncture sites were prepped
and draped in the usual sterile fashion.

-- Right brachial artery access. The puncture site was infiltrated with
local anesthetic. The vessel was accessed using the modified Seldinger
technique, a wire was threaded into the vessel, and a catheter was
advanced over the wire into the vessel.

-- Left heart catheterization. A catheter was advanced to the ascending
aorta. After recording ascending aortic pressure, the catheter was
advanced across the aortic valve and left ventricular pressure was
recorded. Ventriculography was performed using power injection of contrast
agent. Imaging was performed using an RAO projection.

-- Right coronary artery angiography. A catheter was advanced to the
aorta and positioned in the vessel ostium under fluoroscopic guidance.
Angiography was performed in multiple projections using hand-injection of
contrast.

-- Left coronary artery angiography. A catheter was advanced to the aorta
and positioned in the vessel ostium under fluoroscopic guidance.
Angiography was performed in multiple projections using hand-injection of
contrast.

-- Right subclavian angiography. A catheter was positioned under
fluoroscopic guidance.

LESION #1 INTERVENTION: A successful balloon angioplasty with stent was
performed on the 99 % lesion in the left subclavian artery. Following
intervention there was an excellent angiographic appearance with a 0 %
residual stenosis. This was an ACC/AHA "non-high risk" lesion for
intervention. There was no acute vessel closure. There was no perforation.
There was no dissection.

-- Balloon angioplasty was performed, using a Rival 4 x 4 x 135 balloon,
with 1 inflations and a maximum inflation pressure of 14 atm. During the
procedure, a new BMW HT 300cm wire was advanced across the lesion.

-- A self-expanding EV3 stent was placed across the lesion and deployed.

-- Balloon angioplasty was performed, using a Rival 7 x 4 x 135 balloon,
with 3 inflations and a maximum inflation pressure of 11 atm.

LESION #2 INTERVENTION: A successful balloon angioplasty with stent was
performed on the 95 % lesion in the 2nd obtuse marginal. Following
intervention there was an excellent angiographic appearance with a 0 %
residual stenosis. This was an ACC/AHA "non-high risk" lesion for
intervention. There was TIMI 2 flow before the procedure and TIMI 3 flow
after the procedure. There was no acute vessel closure. There was no
perforation. There was no dissection.

-- Balloon angioplasty was performed, using a Emerge Rx 2.0 x 12mm
balloon, with 1 inflations and a maximum inflation pressure of 14 atm.
During the procedure, the previous guider was changed for a Runway 6FR FL
4 guider, and a new BMW HT 190cm wire was advanced across the lesion.

-- A PE Plus MR 2.25 x 16 drug-eluting stent was placed across the lesion
and deployed at a maximum inflation pressure of 18 atm. During the
procedure, the previous guider was changed for a Runway 6FR FL 4 guider,
and a new BMW HT 190cm wire was advanced across the lesion.

-- Balloon angioplasty was performed, using a Emerge Rx 2.50 x 12mm
balloon, with 1 inflations and a maximum inflation pressure of 7 atm.
During the procedure, the previous guider was changed for a Runway 6FR FL
4 guider, and a new BMW HT 190cm wire was advanced across the lesion.

LESION #3 INTERVENTION: A successful balloon angioplasty with stent was
performed on the 95 % lesion in the mid circumflex. Following intervention
there was an excellent angiographic appearance with a 0 % residual
stenosis. This was an ACC/AHA "non-high risk" lesion for intervention.
There was TIMI 2 flow before the procedure and TIMI 3 flow after the
procedure. There were no site complications. There was no acute vessel
closure. There was no perforation. There was no dissection.

-- Balloon angioplasty was performed, using a Emerge Rx 2.0 x 12mm
balloon, with 1 inflations and a maximum inflation pressure of 14 atm.
During the procedure, the previous guider was changed for a Runway 6FR FL
4 guider, and a new BMW HT 190cm wire was advanced across the lesion.
