Can I code this report? Using 77001? Have a separate report for CXR for same indication and findings
Grateful for the help in advance. Thanks

Indication: Port-o-Cath Insertion
Procedure: Fluoro Guided Venous Access
Clinical History: Port-o-Cath Insertion
Technique: Fluoro Guided Venous Access

Findings:
C-arm study demonstrates that catheter has been placed from the patient's right side in the superior Vena Cava on the right.

Study of one hour ago likewise demonstrates catheter in the superior vena cava. No evidence of pneumothorax is appreciated. Follow up recommended only as clinically indicated
