92960 Cardioversion with Cardiac Catheterization

Date: Feb 28, 2014

Question:

In your book you state that an elective cardioversion can be billed separately when done before an EP study. Does this hold true for coronaries too? The CPT Codebook does not have any guidelines to go with a cardioversion. We have a physician who is starting to schedule cardioversion with his cardiac catheterization as routine cases.
