Patient has EKOS cathetet follow-up found a little more thrombus and they ended up doing mechanical thrombectomy (venous) and then they removed the EKOS catheter. These two codes 37214 and 37187 bundle. Are these two codes often billed together? I'm not sure I would use the 59 modifier in this situation because both removal of EKOS catheter was from the femoral vein and mechanical thrombectomy was of the same vessel.

Thanks,
