FFR in the proximal LV/AO

Date: Dec 3, 2021

Question:

Our physicians have started documenting FFR in the proximal LV/AO. "FFR was performed in the LV. FFR was normalized in the proximal LV/AO. Pullback across LV/AO was performed." Codes 93571 and 93572 are specific to coronary arteries. Is there a code to capture the FFR for this scenario?
