Anyone know about the Category III codes for the Leadless Pacemakers? According to the September 2014 Cardiology Pink Sheet I saw, there are new T-codes. These are not in the 2015 CPT book, and the link they listed to see these codes does not work. Off the top of my head, the article listed a range of 0387T-0391T.....but not 100% sure about that.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Glenn

There you go Glenn. It may be in the HCPCS book.
0319T Insertion or replacement of subcutaneous implantable defibrillator system with subcutaneous electrode
0320T Insertion of subcutaneous defibrillator electrode
0321T Insertion of subcutaneous implantable defibrillator pulse generator only with existing subcutaneous electrode
0322T Removal of subcutaneous implantable defibrillator pulse generator only

Thanks,

Thanks Jim. I was asking about the Leadless Pacemaker codes actually...we use the Nanostim. Your codes are for the Sub-Q ICD....another really cool technology. We ran across the PM codes online somewhere...got them at work. I will try to post them here tomorrow for others if they need them.

Thanks,
Glenn
