Repair or Replacement of Artificial Heart Unit

California rates for HCPCS 0052T

Repairs or replaces the chest unit of a total replacement heart system — the mechanical pump itself, which sits inside the chest. It is done when that part of the system fails or has to be exchanged. Because the unit lies within the chest, the chest has to be opened again.
