  • Yes, this has been a recent topic of discussion.
    There is Coding Clinic (3Q 2015) guidance regarding Swan Ganz catheterization - which I'm sure you'll find helpful.
    We submitted a question to Coding Clinic earlier this month regarding peripheral arterial line insertion for monitoring, however, we haven't gotten a response yet.
    Thanks,
