Epinephrine challenge

Date: Aug 23, 2011

Question:

One of our EP doctors did a provocative testing drug study on a patient with recurrent syncope using Epinephrine and Procainamide. I have no idea what the code would be for this! When I checked my CPT book, it led me to 95078 which appears to have been deleted. Would I use the unlisted code 95199 instead?
