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

What 35876 covers

A vascular surgeon uses open surgical access to remove clot from an arterial or venous graft and revises the graft during the same procedure. This code is for grafts other than dialysis access grafts or fistulas. A typical setting is an operating room where a thrombosed peripheral bypass graft is explored to restore flow and the graft is revised as part of the operation.

Report the code when the operative documentation supports both open thrombectomy and graft revision; clot removal without revision is distinguished by 35875. The major-surgery global period includes the day-before preoperative visit and 90 days of related postoperative care. 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 multiple procedure reduction. Modifier 50 is inappropriate for this code. An assistant at surgery may be paid; co-surgeon payment requires supporting documentation, and team surgery is not permitted.
