Hello,

I have a physician who is removing an ICD and replacing it with a pacemaker. I usually see it where they are removing the ICD and replacing it with an ICD and vice versa. Would you use code 33249 or code for the removal of the ICD and code separately for the placement of the pacemaker?

Thank you!
