92960 During EPS Before/After Catheter Insertion No Consent Form
Date: Jan 3, 2022
Question:
Is it appropriate to report code 92960 at any time when a patient is coming in for an EPS ablation? The description of 92960 states "elective". In reviewing other questions on here this would need a consent form signed by the patient. There seems to be confusion in that we can code 92960 before any catheters have been placed at the beginning of the case. Will you please advise?
