EKG preop and post op with Atrial Flutter Ablation

Date: Oct 15, 2018

Question:

A patient had pre-op and post-op EKG with atrial flutter ablation. Hospital wants to submit two units of 93005 before and after atrial flutter ablation with 93613 with 3D mapping, 93653 with atrial flutter ablation, and 93621 for coronary sinus recording and pacing. Is EKG bundled with atrial flutter ablations? If it's allowed, can we bill it pre-op or post-op?
