Hi,
Looking for some expertise on this situation please.......
Our Cardiologist performed a cardioversion on a patient in the outpatient setting, it was unsucessful. Pt was then admitted to observation status in our ICU unit, another cardioversion was done and this time it was successful. How would we code this? Would a modifier suffice being that the first was unsuccessful?
Any expertise, feedback, opinion or advice would be greatly appreciated!
Thank you and have a great day!
