(Rev. 1, 10-01-03)
A/B MACs (B) must apply the bundled services policy to procedures in this family of
codes other than CPT code 77776. For procedures furnished in settings in which TC
payments are made, A/B MACs (B) must pay separately for the expendable source
associated with these procedures under CPT code 79900 except in the case of remote
after-loading high intensity brachytherapy procedures (CPT codes 77781-77784). In the
four codes cited, the expendable source is included in the RVUs for the TC of the
procedures.
