Question:
I have a doctor who feels that he does not need to use the word emergent for when he performs a PCI during an acute MI (92941). Do you know of any documentation per CMS that provides that clarification that I can reference for him to see that understanding? Any references would be greatly appreciated or documentation or articles that I can use to help him understand this reference.
