Intra-Arterial Administration of 6.5 mCi Technetium 99m Labeled MAA

Date: Dec 16, 2013

Question:

I have a radiology physician who does pre-Y90 mapping and MAA shunt evaluation when he infuses the intra-arterial administration of 6.5 mCi Technetium 99m labeled MAA for the shunt evaluation. Is there a way we can capture this charge? I am only coming up with a HCPC code C1204 for this, and I'm wondering if there is an additional CPT code we can use to capture this.
