Radioembolization Codes
Date: Dec 16, 2013
Question:
With the new embolization code 37242 (arterial embolization) for radioembolization procedures, is it appropriate to also bill for a visceral angiogram (75726)? Should you report code 75726 when performing a mapping pre-procedure for radioembolization?
