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

What 35612 covers

This operation creates a graft connection between the right and left subclavian arteries to route blood around an obstructed or otherwise unusable segment. Vascular surgeons may perform it for selected patients with subclavian artery occlusive disease when revascularization from the opposite subclavian artery is appropriate. The graft uses a conduit other than vein, commonly a prosthetic graft. The operative report should identify both arterial endpoints and describe the bypass performed.

Report this code when the bypass connects the subclavian artery on one side to the subclavian artery on the other, rather than using a carotid, axillary, or vertebral endpoint. The code has a 90-day global period, including the day-before preoperative visit and related postoperative care during that period. When multiple procedures are performed in the same session, the highest-valued procedure is paid in full and other procedures are subject to the standard 50% reduction. A bilateral procedure reported with modifier 50 is paid at 150%. Assistant-at-surgery payment may be available; co-surgeons require supporting documentation, and team surgery is not permitted.
