Wiki Lifevest question

[scdavis]

Is anyone billing for interrogation of Lifevest? Lifevest is a wearable recording device used when a patient is having a cardiac symptom. Readings are submitted to the particular company and then the doctor interprets it thru a computer.
Last year we used cpt code 93741 but I am not finding a code for wearable device that would fit in CPT 2009. Help!!!

Hi. I was having the same issue. It looks like 93292 is the code for Interrogation devise evaluation; wearable defibrillator system. This came from our LifeVest rep.

Remote

93292 is specific to in person. Is there anything we can use for remote checks?
