Webinar Title: Coding for Diagnostic & Therapeutic Venous Interventions - Your Comprehensive Coding Guide

Webinar Overview - General

This Webinar will provide instruction on coding diagnostic venography, dialysis access maintenance, IVC Filter placement and removal, and central venous access. Participants will master coding through "hands on" coding of case studies.

Learning Objectives Include:

  • Key documentation required
  • Five vascular systems for interventional procedures - Each system is coded separately
  • When it is appropriate to code multiple angioplasties for dialysis access maintenance
  • When it is appropriate to code a venogram in conjunction with IVC filter placements, and central venous access devices
  • When it is appropriate to code an angioplasty in addition to a stent placement for AV grafts
  • Common modifiers associated with these procedures

The following are only a few of the topics to be discussed:

  • Vascular System
