Hello,

I have a report for PTCA that was done. The left anterior descending artery was difficulty to advance the wire into and there was significant angulation in the artery after multiple attempts the was lesion was dilated and a stent was placed. There was no time documented Is there anything you can bill for this being more difficult in the case?

Thanks,

Kayla
 
You may be able to add modifier 22 to this and send a copy of the op note. No guarantees on extra payment tho.
