Radiology Question for the Week of February 10, 2025
When performing an MRI on a patient with an implanted cardiac device or neurostimulator, how should code 76018 be reported if the same provider conducting the device evaluation or neurostimulator analysis programming also prepares the device for MR safe mode? Would this scenario still qualify for separate reporting of 76018, or must a different provider perform the additional preparation for it to be billed?
