Isuprel infusion procedure only

Date: Mar 24, 2023

Question:

We have a patient who presented for a right ventricular outflow ablation. Prior to any access being obtained in the EP lab, Isuprel was infused and the patient observed for one hour with only four PVCs. At that point the procedure was aborted. Do you recommend reporting unlisted code 93799 for the Isuprel infusion?
