Does anyone have information about whether the supplies are billed separately from the procedure when placing a PICC in an MD office? Â I have the codes for placement and ultrasound, but can't find the supply codes. Â Can anyone help me with this? Â Please email me privately, and I can send you a phone number also. Â I have patients waiting several days to get lines placed at the hospital, and would love to provide a more cost effective service out of a local doctor's office. Â
Also, does anyone know what the requirements are for lines placed in an Ambulatory Infusion Center? Â Is it the same? Â Does an MD have to be present? Â Where can I find this information?
Â
Thanks so much.
