Shockwave Coronary IVL
Date: Oct 13, 2023
Question:
According to the Shockwave IVL reimbursement guide (included link below) CPT add-on code 0715T is appropriate for physician billing only. The HCPCS Coding Clinic 2nd Q 2023 states that 0715T can be reported with codes C9600-C9608 or 92928 along with the device code C1761. However, this Coding Clinic does not differentiate the encounter type (physician billing vs. hospital outpatient APC billing). Please clarify if it's appropriate to report CPT 0715T on Hospital Outpatient/ASC claims.
