Dual chamber pacemaker to BIV generator with a new LBB lead

Date: Mar 21, 2025

Question:

We are looking for guidance on what codes are appropriate to use when the patient presents with a dual pacemaker device, has a new biventricular pacemaker generator inserted, and a third lead added to the LBB. Would you code 33207 and add the 33233 for the removal of the old generator?
