Active fixation lead vs temporary pm lead insertion
Date: Mar 6, 2019
Question:
The provider places an active fixation lead via the RIJ. The lead is placed in the RV apex and then attached to a single chamber external PPM. All sensing, impedance, and thresholds are stable. I'm wanting clarification if I should report code 33207 or 33210?
