Hello
We do TMVR (transcatheter mitral valve repair using mitra-clip, during the session the physician uses TEE for guidance 93355 - TEE with invasive procedure. my question this is being denied as bundled with CCI of 0 never to be used together, but in the CPT book it says : A range of intracardiac therapies may be performed with TEE guidance. Code 93355 - describes TEE during advanced transcatheter structural heart procedures (eg, transcatheter aortic valve replacement [TAVR], left atrial appendage closure [LAA], or percutaneous mitral valve repair). Can someone please help me to understand why this seems contradicting or am I wrong.
PLEASE help me
