Using yоur CPT cоding mаnuаl, аssign the cоrrect code(s) for the procedure(s).

The patient was consciously sedated. The previous subcutaneous right infraclavicular skin pocket was identified, and an incision was made in this area to remove the previously inserted generator. The atrial and ventricular leads were checked.Since the pocket was clean, it was determined that the same pocket could be used for the reinsertion of a new generator. A pulse generator was placed and tested. Noting no complications, the physician sutured the site. The patient was found to be in stable condition and was returned to the recovery room in satisfactory condition. CPT Code(s): Enter the coding path you followed in the index to get to your code(s)

A 12-cm incision was made on the left side of the chest. The incision was made between the ribs and was carried down to expose the heart's surface. An ischemia was visualized on the right side of the heart. The laser was inserted into the cardiac area, and between heartbeats, 15 channels were made and pressure was applied to close the opened areas. Prior to closure of the incision, there was no significant bleeding from the cardiac tissue. The laser was removed, the incision was closed, and dressings were placed on the wound. The patient tolerated the procedure with no complications and was sent to the recovery area in stable condition. CPT Code(s): Enter the coding path you followed in the index to get to your code(s)
