What 36570 covers
Code 36570 describes placement of a peripherally inserted central venous access device (PIVAD) without a subcutaneous port or pump in a patient younger than five. The service establishes central venous access through a peripheral vein, commonly for ongoing intravenous therapy such as chemotherapy, parenteral nutrition, or prolonged antibiotics. A qualified procedural clinician may perform it in a hospital or another setting equipped for vascular access. Imaging guidance and its radiological supervision and interpretation are included in this insertion service.
Select this code for the specified PIVAD and age group, not solely because a child receives a PICC; document the device placed, patient age, and insertion details. Related postoperative visits during the 10-day global period are included. 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%. An assistant at surgery is paid only when medical necessity is documented; co-surgeons and team surgery are not permitted.

36570 billing questions
How does 36570 differ from 36571?
Both describe PIVAD insertion without a subcutaneous port or pump. Use 36570 for a patient younger than five; 36571 is for a patient five or older.
Is imaging guidance separately reported?
Imaging guidance and radiological supervision and interpretation are included in 36570. They are not separately reported as components of this insertion service.
When would 36568 or 36572 be considered instead?
Those codes describe PICC insertion in a patient younger than five, rather than the PIVAD service represented by 36570. Code 36568 is for insertion without imaging guidance; 36572 includes imaging guidance.
What documentation supports 36570?
The record should identify the PIVAD placed, confirm that the patient was younger than five, and describe the insertion. Document medical necessity if an assistant at surgery is involved.
How are bilateral insertions and other same-session procedures handled?
Bilateral reporting with modifier 50 is paid at 150%. When multiple procedures are performed in the same session, the highest-valued procedure is paid in full and the others at 50%.
Where these rates come from
FeeBase calculates base physician payments from CMS work, practice-expense and malpractice RVUs, adjusted by each locality’s geographic indexes and the conversion factor. Services without a published rate are labeled, never given a made-up amount. Amounts are Medicare allowed amounts before claim adjustments: not a patient’s bill or a commercial rate.
