Ask Dr. Z

"Our physician performed a balloon angioplasty of a right-sided axillary-femoral artery bypass at both the proximal axillary and the distal profunda femoral ends of the bypass. Using an abdominal incision, we maneuvered to the proximal axillary end, performed angiogram and angioplasty, and then repeated the process at the distal profunda end." Is the selective catheter movement to the proximal axillary end of the bypass billable? We used two balloons to treat the stenosis at both ends of the graft; are both angioplasties billable?
