Could someone please explain to me whether peripheral atherectomy and angioplasty on the same vessel be billed? I've seen differing responses to questions posted on the site and no 2 answers are the same.
Does peripheral coding follow the same hierarchy like cardiac caths?
Also if it is dependent on payor, which payors are we talking about?
Most of my coding books seem to skirt the issue. Any comments would be greatly appreciated.
