Wiki Venoplasty Guidlines needed

[Robbin109]

Does anyone have any Venoplasty guidelines they could forward me?

Is it just one Venoplasty coded per zone?

I have a Venoplasty of Iliac, SFA, POP and PT. Can these all be billed separate or included in the one code of 35476?


Thanks!

According to the following link its 1 per zone. Then again the MUE is 5 so now I'm not so sure since the article mentions there only being 2 zones.

I wasn't sure if the zone rule just applied to pt's be treated with a AV Shunt?

I just have a pt with multi stenosis.

You can bill for each zone or vascular family and use a mod 59, also dont forget to bill for cath placement and radiology s&i
