Hi: I have a provider that is coding A4556 for the electrodes when he does an ECG, the description for this code does not state that electrodes for ECG's are covered. Is this appropiate billing? Thanks for any responses....

No, we do not bill for the electrodes. They are covered in the total payment for the ECG service as part of the overhead component of the payment.
