What 93313 covers

This code represents placing a transesophageal echocardiography probe, without the image acquisition, interpretation, or report. It is commonly relevant in an operating room when a clinician places the probe for intraoperative TEE and a different clinician performs and reports the imaging service. The probe passes through the esophagus to provide access for cardiac ultrasound views; placement alone is the work represented here, not ongoing image interpretation or monitoring.

Choose 93313 when the documented service is limited to probe placement. The record should identify the clinician who placed the probe and support that this service was separate from the TEE imaging and interpretation. When one clinician performs and reports the complete TEE service, 93312 includes probe placement. When the imaging service is separately reported, 93314 describes image acquisition, interpretation, and reporting without probe placement. Code 93318 instead describes intraoperative TEE monitoring, rather than placement alone.
