EP Ablation Coding & Documentation Auditor
Paste a cardiac ablation procedure note. The auditor suggests CPT and ICD-10-CM codes with the sentence that supports each one, applies the 2022 ablation bundling rules, flags add-ons that the note doesn't yet support, and drafts non-leading CDI queries. It runs only in your browser.
How it works and what it does not do
- The note is split into sentences, and each clinical concept (PVI, CTI line, posterior wall, ICE, isoproterenol, 3D mapping, energy source) is matched with simple negation handling, so "ICE was not used" doesn't count as ICE.
- Primary package logic follows the 2022 CPT revisions: 93656 includes 3D mapping, ICE and transseptal access; 93653 includes 3D mapping and left atrial pacing; 93654 includes 3D mapping and LV pacing. Add-ons 93655, 93657, 93623, 93662, 93462 and 93622 are suggested only where the code family allows them.
- Each add-on is marked Supported only when the note documents the work that the code pays for, such as the reason for ablation beyond PVI for 93657. Otherwise it is marked Needs review with the missing element named.
- CDI queries follow the multiple-choice format with "Other" and "Unable to determine" options, and they cite clinical indicators instead of suggesting an answer.
- It does not apply payer-specific NCCI edits, MUEs, or LCDs, and it is not a substitute for a certified coder. CPT is a registered trademark of the American Medical Association; code descriptions here are plain-language summaries.
