CCO Admin asked:
Can CPT 35556 and CPT 33508 be billed together? If not; could someone provide provide a link of supporting documentation that shows they can not. I ran it through Find-A-Code. The error states 33508 needs to have primary code of 33510-33523. But why would 35556 not be allowed as a primary CPT 35556
Answer:
33508 is used for harvesting for coronary by pass grafts.
35556 - Bypass graft; with vein; femoral-popliteal
