Medicare allowed amount for participating (non-QP) physicians, before deductible, coinsurance and claim adjustments. Not a patient’s bill or a hospital charge.

What 35372 covers

A vascular surgeon performs an open endarterectomy of the common femoral artery and enlarges the profunda femoris origin (profundaplasty) to improve blood flow in the leg. This operation is commonly used for significant atherosclerotic disease at the common femoral bifurcation, including plaque that compromises flow into the profunda. It is generally performed in a hospital operating room through a groin incision; a patch may be used to reconstruct the artery after plaque removal.

Report this code when the operative documentation supports common femoral endarterectomy with profundaplasty, rather than an endarterectomy limited to the femoral or profunda femoris artery. The note should identify the treated vessels, the plaque removal, and the profunda reconstruction. CMS assigns a 90-day global period, including the day-before preoperative visit and 90 days of related postoperative care. For multiple procedures in one session, the highest-valued procedure is paid in full and other procedures at 50%. Bilateral reporting with modifier 50 is paid at 150%. Assistant-at-surgery payment may be made; co-surgeons require supporting documentation, and team surgery is not permitted.
