Left Radial Artery and Left forearm Vein were harvested, The left internal mammary artery was taken down.
So would this be a CABGx3
So I think it would be 2 artery and 1 vein
So would I code this
33534 2 atrial grafts
33517 1 venous and 1 atrial
35500 harvesting of vein upper
or would it be?
33533 1 atrial
33517 1 venous and 1 atrial
35500 harvesting
I get confused because I dont know, when I look at the first set of codes it looks like 3 atrial grafts and 1 venous I hope this makes sense so it seems like this should be CABGx4
and the second set is 2 atrial and 1 venous which would be a CABGx3
Is this correct or do I need to quit counting lol
