Is anyone performing this service, or does anyone have definite authoritative guidance on how to code this?
From what I understand, the device manufacturer sends this device directly to the patient, the patient hooks it up, the patient wears it for 21 days,the device sends continuous monitoring back to the manufacturer, the manufacturer sends the data to the physician who makes brief notes on each 24-hour compilation of data, and then the physician does a final summarization report that interprets the data for the entire 21-day period. To clarify, this isn't a Holter, an event monitor, or a loop recorder...this is relatively new technology.
HELP!!! Thank you!
