History of atrial Flutter and 93655

Date: Feb 18, 2022

Question:

I have seen conflicting info on billing 93655 for a history of atrial flutter. Some guidance states it can be reported, while others state it cannot be reported. After PVI ablation, if a patient has a history of atrial flutter and ablation for atrial flutter is done, can 93655 be reported as an additional lesion?
