Removal of IABP on a Different Dday

Date: Sep 18, 2020

Question:

If an IABP is inserted and removed on the same day, we know that you can bill 33967 and 33968 (CPT Assistant, November 2011, page 8). However, can you code the removal if it is done the next day? I am assuming that would require a separate report?
