One Stent Covering Two Lesions

Date: Jan 22, 2018

Question:

I have a case where there are two separate lesions, one in the mid left circumflex and the other in the obtuse marginal. One stent was able to cover both lesions. With these two lesions being separate and in the main artery and branch, should I code this as one intervention? Or as two interventions with 92928-LC and 92929-LC?
