Testing A Breastbone-Lead Defibrillator

Montana rates for HCPCS 0577T

A test of whether a defibrillator whose wire runs behind the breastbone will actually do its job. An abnormal rhythm is deliberately started under controlled conditions, and the team checks that the device senses it and delivers a shock that stops it, adjusting the sensing and treatment settings based on what happens.
