Patient has left side pacemaker and is diagnosed with left side breast cancer. The pacemaker was removed and set aside and the 2 leads were extracted. The original pacemaker generator was reinserted in the right side with 2 new leads. I think I can bill the 33233 for generator removal and 33235 for the extraction of the leads and 33217 for the insertion of the new leads. Is there something I can bill for the reinsertion of the original generator?
