If a patient has a pre-existing bioprosthetic aortic valve that isn't functioning properly anymore, and patient presents to have TAVR to place new prosthesis over the old one, would you go with 33999 or established code? (ie 33361 for example).
I know that guidance has been put forth to use 33999 for this scenario for mitral valve in valve replacements. Wondering if people follow suit with aortic valves.
Thanks.
