Need some advice on this:
Pt had L Heart Cath with Stent to the RC, pt was then put in obs care. During the cath, the doctor states that the pt had 2 lesions in the RC. After a period of time the pt had questionable EKG changes, so the same dr decided to return the pt to the cath lab and stent the other lesion in the RC.
Is the second trip billable since its in the same artery?
1st procedure: 92980-RC
93510-26
93545
93556-26,59
93543
93555-26,59
2nd procedure: ?
