Pacemaker and ICD Interrogation

Date: Apr 30, 2021

Question:

We are currently billing our PM and ICD interrogation remote associated with a download. After reviewing this practice it appears we are missing consistency and not capturing each patient within every 90 days. Is it proper to bill remote interrogation on a schedule at the end of the third month for each patient instead of synching with a download feed?
