What is VAD code 93750?

Patients with a previously implanted ventricular assist device (VAD) require periodic interrogation of the device, as reported with 93750 Interrogation of ventricular assist device (VAD), in person, with physician analysis of device parameters (e.g. drivelines, alarms, power surges), review of device function (e.g. flow and volume status, septum status, recovery), with programming, if performed, and report. This code includes the physician analysis, review, and report. It also includes device programming, if performed.#N#Code 93750 is NOT reported with any of the surgical implantation codes (33975, 33976, 33979, 33981-33983), but typically is reported with an E/M visit. VAD management is considered to be a diagnostic service, which must be performed in person, and includes a face-to-face assessment of all device functions. Components that must be evaluated include:

Is 93750 a surgical code?

What is a VAD pump?

VADs are intended for short-time use for patients who have had cardiac surgery or a recent heart attack or who need a bridge to transplant. Long-term use may be required for patients with chronic congestive heart failure. VADs assist either the right ventricle (RVAD) or the left ventricle (LVAD), or both at once (BiVAD), depending on the patient’s underlying heart disease. These devices have come a long way in a relatively short time. Medical coding has had to keep pace with technology.#N#For professional billing of VAD insertion or pump replacement, select from the following CPT® codes:#N#33975 Insertion of ventricular assist device; extracorporeal, single ventricle#N#33976 Insertion of ventricular assist device; extracorporeal, biventricular#N#33977 Removal of ventricular assist device; extracorporeal, single ventricle#N#33978 Removal of ventricular assist device; extracorporeal, biventricular#N#33979 Insertion of ventricular assist device, implantable intracorporeal, single ventricle#N#33980 Removal of ventricular assist device, implantable intracorporeal, single ventricle#N#33981 Replacement of extracorporeal ventricular assist device, single or biventricular, pump (s), single or each pump#N#33982 Replacement of ventricular assist device pump (s); implantable intracorporeal, single ventricle, without cardiopulmonary bypass [no global period]#N#33983 Replacement of ventricular assist device pump (s); implantable intracorporeal, single ventricle, with cardiopulmonary bypass [no global period]#N#Example No. 1#N#The patient has orthotopic heart transplant with insertion of 10 mm GORE-TEX ® graft from the left superior vena cava to the recipient’s right atrium, with removal of the BiVAD.#N#Report: 33978 for removal of the extracorporeal (outside the body), BiVAD.#N#Example No. 2#N#A thrombus in a Berlin heart LVAD occurs in a 21-year-old patient with dilated cardiomyopathy.

Can you use a VAD for congestive heart failure?

Long-term use may be required for patients with chronic congestive heart failure. VADs assist either the right ventricle (RVAD) or the left ventricle (LVAD), or both at once (BiVAD), depending on the patient’s underlying heart disease. These devices have come a long way in a relatively short time.
