Our Dr. saw a pt for a nonstemi and the patient had a full echo (I bill pro fee). A few days later he did a "limited stress echo" to access low flow - low grade stenosis. I have never billed a "limited stress echo" and am unable to locate codes for this particular procedure. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
For the reg stress echo I would bill
93350-26
93018
93320-26
93325-26
Thank you
 
I've never had a provider bill a limited stress echo, only a limited echo, but I'll give this a shot. I'm thinking 93351-52, 93321-26 (if documented and done), 93325-26 (again, if documented and done), and possibly 93352 (if documented and done) along with your Q code for the drug if contrast was used. If your facility does not include continuous EKG monitoring while doing the stress echo, then I think it would be 93350-52-26, 93018, 93321-26, 93325-26.
