C-codes for angiographic catheters

Date: Sep 22, 2011

Question:

Good morning, Dr. Z, A question has come up regarding C-Codes for a diagnostic angio catheters. We had a C-Code attached in our charge master for diagnostic catheters in the Cath Lab, but we did not have it attached in the Angio charge master. I checked your book for device codes and there is not a C-code listed for them. The sales reps say no, that there is no C-code for them. With the confusion between the charge masters I have been tasked with writng to you for advice. Thank you, again for all your help! R Mercer
