Replacing A Breathing Stimulator Generator

Georgia rates for HCPCS 0431T

The implanted generator of a central sleep apnea stimulation system is removed and a new one is put in its place during the same session. The pocket is opened, the leads are disconnected from the old generator and reconnected to the new one, which is tested before the wound is closed. This is what is done when the battery reaches the end of its life.
