Question:
Do you have any guidance on code 33367?
Answer:
This is an add on code. When cardiopulmonary bypass support is utilized during the aortic valve replacement, the support is coded separately with the corresponding add-on codes like 33367, 33368, or 33369 as appropriate.
33367 | Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR/TAVI) with prosthetic valve; cardiopulmonary bypass support with percutaneous peripheral arterial and venous cannulation (e.g., femoral vessels) (List separately in addition to code for primary procedure) |
