CPT Codes 93621, 93622, and 93623

Date: Apr 19, 2013

Question:

AMA has clarified information on EP coding, but CMS Transmittal 2636 conflicts with the AMA's revision, so I'm questioning if we will continue to see issues with these codes until CMS updates their information. NCCI also lists a bundling issue with codes 93623 and 93653, and I'm not sure that it would be appropriate to append a modifier to unbundle. Thoughts?
