Patient has a left arm Arteriovenous fistula, two issues one there is a stenosis on the cephalic vein portion of the fistula procedure performed "No Glidewire was available so a Benton wire was advanced fistulogram was performed dorado balloon was the parked at vein stenosis it was used to a balloon angioplasty"- 35460? (2. there is an aneurysm on the arterial part of the fistula
"anterior wall was resected and the aneurysms were closed longitudinally using running 5-0 Prolone". 36832? or 35011?
I guess my question is can we bill for the venous portion and arterial repair separate or would this all be billed as 36832?
:confused:
