The code for removal or revision of the lead is CPT 64585, with a global period of 10 days, while the code for removal or revision of the IPG is CPT 64595, with a global period of 10 days. In practice however, these codes are not useful for “revision”. Current NCCI edits and bundling rules make removal and placement codes exclusive of one another (so, for example, 64581 cannot be coded with 64585). (See “billing tips”). Since revision can be thought of as removal of a pre-existing lead or IPG, followed by placement of a new lead or generator, most practitioners simply document the removal and the placement and code only for the placement (e.g., CPT 64581 and not 64585). In general, it is helpful to consider the phrase “revision” as meaning “removal and replacement”.
For Basic Test 64561, no separate code may be added for fluoroscopic imaging, as this is included in the 64561-base code. In the typical case, lead removal is included in the global period and is not usually coded separately.
