CPT Knowledgebase - Feb 6, 2025

What is the most appropriate code assignment for the placement of a trial integrated lead? The lead is placed percutaneously at the nerve site. A receiver wire is advanced within the lead, and the lead is secured to the skin. When this procedure is performed in a permanent manner, the excess receiver wire is buried in a subcutaneous pocket. However, because this is a trial, the lead is secured or anchored to the skin.
