I have an 8 day old patient that had a DAMUS/KAYE/STANZEL procedure. The patient was on bypass and ECMO - I coded CPT code 33606 with the ASA code of 00561. I have coded for the A line 36620, the C line 36555 and the ultrasound 76937 (all are documented) but is there an additional code I should use for the ECMO?
(The patient is already on ECMO)
I would greatly appreciate any help.
thanks,
