Question:
If a stent was placed in the diagonal branch, and after this was done it was found that the occlusion was in the main LD and so the provider goes back 3 hours later and places a stent in the main LD and also performs a kissing balloon angioplasty in the main LD and the diagonal branch, would we be able to bill for both stents plus the angioplasty on the second attempt?
