Roving catheter during EP

Date: Jul 2, 2012

Question:

Our EP physicians frequently mention a "roving" catheter when listing catheter locations during a EP study. A current example shows catheter placements in the RV apex and RV outflow tract and a roving St Jude quadripolar catheter. How would this be coded. Thank you.
