I am coding the OPCAB, but I an not sure if it is just 33533 from the LIMA to the dominant diagonal. It was done off pump for the patient's safety. Am I missing a code?
 
More info or the op note is needed to code correctly. 33533 is for a single arterial graft and that you mentioned LIMA to Diagional. There is no difference for coding on pump vs. off pump.
