I am new to Cardiology coding, and need some clarification what to code when selective coronary angiogram is indicated? Does it have a code or is it included in the cath?
Also, a cardiac cath report that I am looking at is as follows, and I am not sure how to code all the angiograms. Do I code each separately?
1. Selective coronary angiogram
2. Angiogram o the saphenous venous graft to the right coronary artery
3. Left internal mammary artery angiogram
4. Angiogram of the saphenous venous graft to the left circumflex artery
5. Left heart catheterization
6. Left ventriculogram
Any help would be appreciated.
