Hello,
Earlier this year CMS approved a set of HCPCS codes to be used for intravascular lithotripsy for billing in the hospital outpatient setting.
These four new codes are “C,” codes and are not on the Medicare physician fee schedule.
From a professional billing perspective is there anything I should be billing besides the angioplasty codes when my vascular doctors perform
intravascular lithotripsy? Are these new HCPCS codes for facility side billing? Should I use an unlisted code to bill for the physician's portion?
Any input would be helpful! Thanks!
