Date: Aug 3, 2012

Question:

I hope is well!  I need your assistance on the coding recommendation of a Renal Angiography, case example:  RT Renal, superselective in to multi branches and LT Renal main renal , only.  My thoughts are to code both unilateral codes to support the service provided 36253–Rt  and 36251-Lt.  Would this be correct?
