Extremity angiogram with bypass
Date: Oct 15, 2018
Question:
If patient has a fem-tib bypass but surgeon decides to do an lower extremity angiogram to find the right area for the distal anastomosis, would the angiogram be reportable with 75710? I feel this is not diagnostic and is considered intraprocedural mapping so therefore code 75710 could not be reported. Is this correct?
