iFR change to 93799

Date: Dec 24, 2022

Question:

Since recent change of iFR to unlisted we have several questions. Do you recommend using modifiers when done in different vascular families... since several iFRs can be performed on same date of service (i.e., LM, LD,  RC when MVD seen).   (Unlisted CPT doesn't allow modifiers in our editing system, but just wanted to verify.) Do you anticipate possible creation of CPT code for iFRs in future? Additionally we see the MUE of 1 but 3 MUE Adjudication Indicator for same date of service so can we charge for up to 3 on same date of service?
