CMS Pub. 100-04, ch. 12, § 100.1.5
Other Complex or High-Risk Procedures
In the case of complex or high-risk procedures for which national Medicare policy, local
policy, or the CPT description indicate that the procedure requires personal (in person)
supervision of its performance by a physician, pay for the physician services associated
with the procedure only when the teaching physician is present with the resident. The
presence of the resident alone would not establish a basis for fee schedule payment for
such services. These procedures include interventional radiologic and cardiologic
supervision and interpretation codes, cardiac catheterization, cardiovascular stress tests,
and trans-esophageal echocardiography.
