33264

Date: Aug 13, 2012

Question:

Please do NOT include any actual patient medical records with your question. Dr. Z, I have a question about the coding question dated Jul 5, 2012 involving a Bi-v ICD generator change with romoval and replacement of LV lead. You recommended 33244, 33225 & 33263 since there was only a RV & LV lead. My question is on 33263. The C code for the Bi-v device is C 1882. Can this C-code be used with 33263 ? Thanks, Dr. Z. Diane
