Holter Monitor

Date: Sep 5, 2018

Question:

Our patient was hooked up with a 72-hour Holter monitor (CPT code range 0295T-0298T); however, the monitor was worn for less than 48 hours. Should this be coded based on the type of monitor hooked up (0295T-0298T) or the time of continuous monitoring (93224-93227)?
