Mechanical Obstruction from the LAD Stent

Date: Feb 21, 2018

Question:

My provider is placing a stent into the LAD and RCA. He stated there was a mechanical obstruction in the LCX due to the LAD stent, and then he did a plasty on the LCX. Would I bill for this plasty with 92920-LC or just consider that not billable?
