Virginia rates for HCPCS 33213

Implants the pacemaker's battery-and-computer unit, the small sealed case that sits under the skin below the collarbone, and connects it to pacing wires already running to the heart. The wires are not placed during this operation; only the unit is implanted and hooked up. It is most often done when an existing pacemaker's battery is nearing the end of its life.
