Wiki Cath modifier

[Chelsea1]

Our cardiologist did a atherectomy on his patient but the procedure was assisted by another cardiologist within the same group. I am unclear as to what modifier to attach to this claim. Any help would be appreciated.
Thank you

I don't believe you can bill an assist for an atherectomy code. You would need to check on the physician fee schedule to double check.
