Video Transcription

Video Summary

The video discusses a case scenario from the AFib Ablation Registry. The patient had previously undergone an AFib Ablation Pulmonary Vein Isolation Redo Procedure. After assessing all four pulmonary veins, one vein from the previous procedure was still isolated, while three veins were no longer isolated. During the current procedure, three veins were re-isolated using pulmonary vein isolation as the ablating strategy. The question is how to code Sequence 7155, Number of Veins Isolated. The answer is to code it as three veins isolated based on clinician documentation. The video concludes by thanking the viewer for reviewing the case scenario.
