A 43-year-old patient who suffers from severe intermittent vertigo has been definitively diagnosed with Meniere’s disease. After a year of various treatments, medications, tests, and behavior/lifestyle changes that have failed to lessen the symptoms, she now presents for a transcanal chemical labyrinthotomy to the right ear. Dr. Miller visualizes the tympanic membrane with an operating microscope, cleans the ear canal, and makes a small incision into the tympanic membrane. Gentamicin is delivered into the right ear. The patient is repositioned with the right ear up and monitored by the nurse. The perfusion is repeated to achieve the maximum result. The ear is suctioned, cleaned, and carefully examined for bleeding. The patient tolerated the procedure well and is returned to the recovery area in satisfactory condition. How would Dr. Miller report his professional services?

a. 386.04, 69801 x 2, 69990-51

b. 386.04, 69905 x 2, 69990-51

c. 386.00, 69801, 69990
