Tendyne Procedure billed with 0484T

Date: Oct 13, 2020

Question:

I have an op report for a mitral valve replacement using the Tendyne delivery system. At this time, code 0484T is being used. Has there been an actual code established for this, or should 33999 be used? Also, the valve itself is included in the procedure, correct?
