In short, patient presented to cath lab with Anterolateral STEMI in cardiogenic shock. MD performed Left heart catheterization with ventriculography. Impella placed. Drug-eluting stent L main. Balloon angioplasty and stent Prox LAD. Angioplasty LC. Reported 93458-26 59, 92941 LM, 92928 LD, 92920 LC and 33990. Payer paid 93458, 92941 and 33990. Says other 2 codes bundled into 92941. Is this correct?
 
Is the LM/LAD/LC stenosis the same lesion? That may be the reason for 92928-LD and 92920-LC is not getting paid. If you can send a report it may help.
