Wiki Hepatic abscess catheter exchange

[Jim Pawloski]

Have a patient with a 22 french drainage partially disloged from a hepatic abscess cavity. The catheter was exchanged for three 14 french drainage catheters thru the same access, and placed in different portions of the cavity. My question is do I charge for a catheter exchange once or times three?
Thanks,
Jim Pawloski, CIRCC

I would say one since it's the same access site.
