PAVF Using Ellipsys Device

Date: Aug 24, 2020

Question:

What is the appropriate CPT for PAVF using an Ellipsys device? Should we use an unlisted code along with G2170 to report our physician's work? Our physician also performed brachial plexus nerve block immediately prior to the PAVF. Would this be bundled, or is it separately reportable?
