93623

Date: Jan 26, 2022

Question:

There is the Table of Elements of Cardiac Ablation Codes in CPT 2022 Professional Edition book. We are not clear if 93623 applies to the "induction or attempted induction of arrhythmia with right atrial pacing and recording". If the answer is yes, we can no longer code 93623 for SVT, VT, and AF ablation.
