Ask Dr. Z

Please do NOT include any actual patient medical records with your question. Hello Dr. Z, I have a physician who dictates abdominal aortogram performed, along with unilateral or bilateral peripheral angiogram. However, findings start with the iliac arteries and proceed down the leg. Does a description of iliacs support 75625, or do I need to have a description of the abdominal aorta or renal arteries to support 75625? I have been coding 75710 or 75716 unless there are findings describing the abdominal aorta or renals, at which time I code 75625 along with 75710 or 75716. Thanks!
