Can you bill CPT CODES 93459 and 33210 together?
The patient was scheduled, outpt hospital, to have a LHC done with diagnosis 414.00. We did CPT CODE 93459 (LHC, COR, LIMA, SVG). The patient had asystole w/ dx. 427.5 so we had to do CPT CODE 33210 for dx. 427.5 in addition to.
I know the CCI Edits state that you cannot bill CPT Code 33210 with 93459. Modifier 59 is not allowed on code 33210. Per CCI edits there is a 0, not allowed, instead of a 1, allowed with Modifier 59 att.
Any recommendations?
