Catheterization Codes in Vascular Coding

Question:

Are there any vascular CPT codes that still allow separate reporting of selective and non-selective catheterization codes?

Answer:

Yes, the following procedures still allow separate reporting of catheterization codes

• Non- lower extremely, stenting, angioplasty, for example subclavian or renal arteries
• Peripheral embolization, for example hypogastric artery embolization during EVAR or uterine fibroid embolization
• Thrombolysis and thrombectomy
• Diagnostic angiograms and venograms (with the exception of cervical/cerebral and renal angiograms)
• IVUS
• TEVAR
