Question:

Hi Dr. Z: One of my surgeons is placing a Spider filter through a catheter and then passes an atherectomy device and performs an atherectomy and then removes the Spider filter through another catheter. Can anything be charged for the filter placement and then removing it? Thank you! Jill
