Hello

One of my physicians performed an intravascular lithotripsy in the common iliac artery using the Shockwave Balloon. Has any one billed for this? I have researched and have found nothing so I am assuming it will be an unlisted CPT code. I thought I would just throw this out there in case someone else has done this procedure.

thanks!

Coding our first procedure using peripheral shockwave lithotripsy, according to internet information and Dr. Z this device was FDA approved as an angioplasty balloon. We are coding this as an angioplasty of the leg extremity. 3722X series codes.
