The physician accessed the right femoral artery and sheath was inserted and angiogram was done. Then physician accessed the left femoral artery and sheat was inserted and angiogram was done on left and then PTA and stent of left ostial iliac was done. Would it be correct to bill as follows:

37221-LT
36246-RT
75710-26-RT

Thanks. Lisa

For the right you use 36140-RT since there was no selective catheterization performed.
