This seems simple enough and I'm leaning towards 76120 but is 76000 billiable too? There is an edit but some clarification would be helpful. TIA!
PROCEDURE: Cineangiography and fluoroscopy.
INDICATION: A 63-year-old with a history of a mechanical valve. By record, she has a Medtronic Hall single leaflet valve.
DESCRIPTION OF PROCEDURE: The patient was placed on the cath table and fluoroscopy was used to angulate the valve in a short and long axis view. All views demonstrated normal appearance of the valve with zero closing angle and approximately 75-degree opening angle. There was no evidence of restriction. Additionally, cineangiography of the diaphragm was obtained using deep breaths and showed normal motion of both left and right hemidiaphragms.
CONCLUSION: Normal cineangiography of the mechanical aortic valve.
