Okay, I need help from someone more experienced with EP than I currently am. Our EP provider has been here a year almost and I still need help at times with this.

He has a question and I don't know the answer.

Provider did atrial overdrive pacing of patient's SVT which he thought would count as EP testing of the leads (93640-26) at the time of the patient's ICD implant. Anyone agree/disagree???

Agree. Dr. Z covers this and suggests the same code (93640) for your scenario above.

Thank you so much! By any chance was this covered in a book of his and could you possibly send me a copy of the page where this was covered? Let me know.
