Hi All,
Can anyone help me out for the below mentioned scenario,
Informed consent was obtained by appropriate protocol with vocalization of understanding and questions answered. Examination performed with strict attention to asepsis, with local anesthesia. No complications.
Direct ultrasound visualized micropuncture access with image saved and documentation, right internal jugular vein. The guidewire does not traverse into the superior vena cava. Superior vena cavogram was performed demonstrating a high-grade stenosis of the innominate vein, which was traverse fluoroscopically. Non-tunneled dialysis catheter was placed with excellent function verified. The catheter secured and dressed.
IMPRESSION
NON-TUNNELED DIALYSIS CATHETER READY FOR USE. HIGH-GRADE STENOSIS, RIGHT INNOMINATE VEIN.
My question is
Do we need to code for SVC gram along with fluoroscopy code?
Thanks in advance
