I'm interested to see if anyone out there has this same situation and if so, how they billed it.
Diagnostic physician does the cath with coronaries (ex: 93458). Interventionalist comes in and does the coronary flow reserve (93571).
93571 is an add on code but is performed by a different physician than the primary procedure.
Any thoughts on how to bill for that?
 
For commerical ins ACC recommends the unlisted code of 93799. If billing Medicare (Trailblazer) it is free today. They will not pay for the FFR or IVUS done by another physician.
