Wiki TEE assisting

[kristilm]

Okay, my docs are going to start assisting the cardiologists with TEE's as needed in the endoscopy suite. I am trying to figure out how to code the professional side of it. Does anyone have any ideas?

The cardiologists I code for do not do these a whole lot, but I use three codes when I bill for a TEE.
93312-26
93320-26
93325-26
Hope this helps.

It does help, thank you. Do you know of any modifier that would be used for a GI doctor that would be assisting?

I have never come across that before. I would look at the -62 modifer for 2 surgeons.
