CPT® 76120 Cineradiography/videoradiography with cardiac cath

When a cardiologist reviews cardiac cath films and documents his findings, can he bill 76120? The cath was performed by a different cardiologist (not in our group) on a previous date. If so, would we use POS as his office or as the location where the cath was performed?

Review is not an interpretation. The doctor performing the cath interprets and this is part of his code for the procedure (ex, 93458-26). A review is part of MDM of an E/M code.

Is there any scenario where 76120 could be billed (with modifiers 26 and 77) as a reinterpretation?
