Heart Ultrasound From The Food Pipe, Birth Defect

Nationwide rates for HCPCS 93317

The image-taking and interpretation part of an ultrasound of the heart performed with a probe passed down the food pipe, in a person born with a heart defect. Viewing the heart from directly behind it gives the detail needed to map unusual anatomy and to check the result of a repair. This covers acquiring and reporting the images when another clinician placed the probe.
