[@codingwithhoang]

Hi Adan. I am glad you got it. Thanks so much for your support.

[@JesselRamos-eb1wu]

thank you so much!!! you just made it much easier to read & understand case studies on cardiovascular. it all looks so overwhelming but with you, everything seems easier. i hope i can apply all your teachings to when i take the exams

[@codingwithhoang]

It’s normal for it all to seem overwhelming at first, but you’re doing great! I’m confident you’ll be able to apply everything when it’s exam time. Thank you so much for your support

I signed up to remote test and took the first session this morning. I take the second session tomorrow morning. Your lectures truly made a difference in how I approached the exam today. While, yes, it is a difficult exam, your techniques helped tremendously. Thank you. Watching more tonight before the second session tomorrow. Thank you so much for giving so much of your time to others and God bless you!

[@neferpitou8967]

Hi Sir Nguyen, in CPT 2021 there is a table for the pacemakers and deffibrilator procedures on p244 it would still take time when you have that alone, but with your strategy and points and ideas on how to tackle procedure problems on cardiac devices it is way easier and simpler to understand. I added notes on that page on the table, such as "battery change only, upgrade, initital no prior device and etc.", so that if such questions in CPC exam comes I'll just look into the table with my notes and I'll easily get the answer with so little time consumed. Thank you very much!

[@codingwithhoang]

You got it Nefer. I got confused when I used the table inside the CPT book and that's why I came up with my own table so that I can code these case correctly. Thank you so much for your comment and support.

[@marthadiaz6744]

Mr Hoang, I took the CPC exam and had a lot of issues with this section-I did not pass the exam. The wording is what confused me because in the guidelines Procedure page it reads "Initial" but in the code section page(s) it reads Insertion. It would be nice if AMA were consistent with the wording in the guidelines and code section. I will continue to watch your videos as they help tremendously. Keep up the great work.

[@codingwithhoang]

Hi Martha. I know it's very confusing to read CPT codes' description in this section and that's why I advise everyone to write down my code sets in your book and use it based on the scenarios: initial insertion, battery change or device upgrade. Now you know so you will be fine next time. Good luck with exam next time.

Hi anh Hoang, just want to let you know that the code 33229 is out of numerical sequence ( 18:36') in my CPT 2021 version. Which code should be replaced? Thank you!

[@codingwithhoang]

I don't have the new 2021 book but based on the coding software, 33229 is still a valid code in 2021 for removal and replacement of pacemaker pulse generator/battery, multiple lead system type. That said, you need to locate this code in your CPT book, there is no replacement. I hope it helps.

Hi Sharon, you are correct. This is my typo mistake. It should be 33234 (removal of PM electrode, one lead) and 33235 (remove of PM electrode two leads) I know 33225 is the insertion of the LV lead. Thank you for pointing it out.

Yes you are correct! please be note that revision or reposition code can be assigned only when the same lead is reused; once they use a new lead then you need to use the replacement code. I hope it helps.

sir, in code description mentioned(33206) as initial inerstion or replacement could u explaint what meant by replacement can we use the same code for replacement.

[@codingwithhoang]

I was confused myself when this code was first created by AMA and that is why I strongly recommend that use my notes when coding cardiac devices. 33206 can't not be used for replacement , you have to use either 33227 or 33228for pacemaker pulse generator or battery replacement. I hope it helps
