Walk through coding for upper extremity angiography and interventions
Providing instruction in coding for upper extremity angiography and interventions, this webcast will provide much-needed clarification and examples on angioplasty, atherectomy, embolization, infusion therapy, and intravascular stenting for both arterial and venous procedures. With in-depth descriptions of the procedures themselves, the corresponding code choices, and how those code choices can change based on how the procedure was performed, reinforced with examples, case studies, and anatomic diagrams, you will walk away confident when coding for upper extremity procedures.
The agenda, covered by our presenter, Cathy Huyghe includes:
- Upper extremity angiography
- Upper extremity vessels, additional selective vessels after the initial study/exam
- Overview of CPT codes and how they relate to procedures, anatomy, and key phrases to look for in documentation
- Upper extremity interventional procedures
- Arterial and venous with review of anatomy, procedures, and corresponding code choices for:
- Angioplasty, stenting, embolization, thrombolytic therapy, thrombectomy, atherectomy
- Imaging guidance – when it can and cannot be separately reported
- Case examples and scenarios with key phrases to look for in documentation
- Answers to frequently asked questions and, time permitting, answers to attendee questions
