Question:

Hybrid PDA stent and ASD stent along PA banding was performed. Code 37236 is reported for the PDA. Can we report unlisted code 93799 for a stent into atrial septum in right atrium free wall and needle poke through secundum septum? Do you have any other suggestion instead of using unlisted?
