Anybody have a physician performing these?

Rep says we can bill three codes:
Placing Cannula(s) for extracorpeal
External bypass
Thrombectomy direct with or without cath - no mechanical "removing masses from heart"

Indications: Remove thrombus, Rt Heart Masses, Endocarditis

Rep suggests:
36800
33960
34421/34451
33310

Just curious if anyone else is billing these and what you're finding.

Hospital has been told to bill 39.79

Current report the hospital billed:
39.79
88.43
39.61
dx 416.2
453.42

Any feedback is greatly appreciated!
