C9764-C9767 New Codes with G0269?

Date: Jul 20, 2020

Question:

Starting to get these procedures and had a report that I charged C9765 with, and it edited wanting me to charge for closure device. Since per the description for these new codes they include the lower extremity procedures angioplasty, stent, and atherectomy, would the closure device not still be inclusive to the new codes C9764-C9767?
