I'm getting cards with Swan Ganz catheter circled but on the report they are reporting Cordis. I use cpt 93503 for the SW catheter. Can I use the same code for the Cordis? Are they the same type of catheter?-

The Cordis is I believe the Company name. but look at your procedure note and i believe the code you may need is 36555/36556, Central Venous Catheter.
