Medical Coding Guidelines for Advanced Coders - Week 4 CPT Cardiovascular

[@renaehartson8811]

You guys are amazing!! In 2016 I passed my CPC the first time by watching Mrs. J and AMCI videos (no school - self study only in just 5 months). Fast forward to 2019 and I am working as a Cardiology coder coding all hospital procedures for our 10 physicians. I LOVE LOVE LOVE my job! Even after coding for a few years, it's good to refresh your memory, and your video for Advanced Coders has been a huge help. THANK YOU for sharing! Mrs. J - GO STEELERS! :) Love you all.

Hey nice to hear .

[@PuReHoTeNeRgY]

is your hospital system hiring??

[@TruptiRana]

After 2018 i passed my CPC with AMCI i start watching this lecture again to collect more knowledge about cardiovascular. I love the way you teach Cardiovascular System and other chapter i bet i am not getting any Instructor like you. I really missing you.

[@chriscranor9406]

I really learned a lot from this video and actually enjoyed it very much! The way you explain the anatomy and procedures is fantastic and helped me understand much better. Thank you so much!! I will highly recommend this video to anyone I know that needs it! Well done!!!!

[@ingerjackson3809]

I love these videos.. makes me remember why i wanted to be a medical coder. Especially making mistakes. I have so many ahah moments. Thanks ❤

[@AMCIMedicalCoding]

Thanks for joining us!

[@Alyssasblogs23]

I am currently studying for my CPC exam in a few days and absolutely hate learning about cardio system coding. It is just a lot more information than the rest of the systems for CPT coding in my opinion. I have to thank you Mrs. Jay and the AMCI team for helping me along with a lot of other people understand this system better and helping me study for this exam!

[@Sanjana56761]

Me too. Im planning to give my cpc exam within 3 months..

[@ShaKinsey1]

Glad to hear that the videos are helpful.

[@patriciaamcclain9678]

It's a privilege for me to be here.

[@oceanic9776]

Love you amci, love u mrs jay, mrs tracy..god bless u all

[@user-mn2zk3uk5o]

Thank you so much! Self-studier, here, and your videos are so helpful. Working from 2023 CPC in the CABG section (pp. 252-253). The guidelines say to bundle radial artery on p. 252 but they tell to report upper extremity arteries on p. 253. So very confused!

[@AMCIMedicalCoding]

Glad it was helpful! Yes the radial artery is the upper extremity anything with points of attachment that branch of the upper trunk (chest), arms.... and lower extremity points of attachments branch off of the lower trunk (pelvis). Legs...

Thank you so much for your videos. I took my cpc exam 04/03 and passed the first time. I was getting frustrated with the course itself but your videos helped me to get a better understanding. Thank you.

Thank you for the gold Mrs. Jay

[@Chorkymom]

I have short arms too.

[@Maninder6331]

in question 1, previously placed electrode was removed but code 33214 says testing of existing lead which was not done so how does this code fit here ??

Wow @Ms Rochell are you Filipino? so nice to hear you speaking in tagalog. I really love this channel. You guys helped us a lot😍God Bless you all guys.

[@liudmylawrubliwsky1541]

Thank you a lot for your amazing job. In your example of endovascular repair 34714 sounds only for "establishment of cardiopulmonary bypass" in CPT it also "with creation of conduit for delivery of endovascular prosthesis"? Thank you

[@jananisivakumar544]

thank you soo much

[@nashwarasiya1894]

2.55.. dont report 36224 conjunction with 37215( not 36215)

[@AMCICurriculumDirectorMrsJay]

Hey Coder's Are ready for today's discussion? CARDIOVASCULAR! I am pretty sure you will have some AHA moments. So buckle up, I hope to see you at 12:00 noon Eastern.

[@shimaanabil4917]

Thank U, this helped me so much

[@violetapajares542]

B it is in the femoral artery.

[@terrysimmons8720]

Question on example of conversion Pacemaker from single to dual system. You didnt code for the previously placed electrode that was removed. Which makes D not completely accurate. Am I reading the scenario correctly? Wouldn't C be the correct answer?

[@AMCIMedicalCoding]

Code 33214 code description already includes the removal, the testing and insertion of the new pulse generator. Good question!

[@saemae1169]

@@AMCIMedicalCoding the code says “testing of existing lead” ? Which means the lead was tested but not removed

[@AMCIMedicalCoding]

@@saemae1169 yes

[@saemae1169]

@@AMCIMedicalCoding in your question it says the existing lead was removed and two new leads inserted.

[@sucheesmitamishra1017]

Mam pls make vdo on anatomy and physiology of organ system.

[@danielvicky8514]

thank you mam

[@barathi4138]

Can we code 93225 and 93227 both on same claim for the same DOS

[@ashleywhispers4331]

when the radial artery and internal mammary artery are both used why is 35600 used once and not x2 used with a modifier indicating 2 different arteries were harvested?

[@lubnaabbasi8499]

Because internal memory is bundled

[@molife863]

Thank you so much

[@AMCIMedicalCoding]

You're most welcome

[@molife863]

Thank you so much .i am doing my independent study and thinking all of your advanced coders yt courses are enough to pass the cpc exam or do i need to do more study.

[@violetapajares542]

D because for procedure needs 2 surgeons

[@user-gh6ds4em5k]

I'm trying to enroll in the monthly access to the videos but I can find it on the website, can you help me please.

[@AMCIMedicalCoding]
