What 37249 covers
An endovascular specialist, interventional radiologist, or vascular surgeon uses a balloon catheter to widen a narrowed segment in an additional vein after treating the initial vein. The service may be performed through percutaneous access or during open vascular surgery, commonly to address venous outflow obstruction. This code is for venous angioplasty outside a dialysis circuit; dialysis-access circuit treatment follows a separate code family.
Report one unit for each additional vein treated, rather than for repeated balloon inflations or multiple stenoses within one vein. The operative or procedure report should identify the treated veins and document the stenosis and balloon treatment. This is an add-on code and must be reported with a primary procedure, typically 37248 for the initial vein; CMS pays it within that primary procedure's global period. For bilateral treatment reported with modifier 50, CMS pays 150%.

37249 billing questions
When is 37249 used instead of 37248?
Use 37248 for the initial vein and 37249 for each additional vein treated in the same procedure. Multiple treated segments or balloon inflations within one vein do not make it an additional vein.
Can 37249 be reported by itself?
No. It is an add-on code and must be reported with a primary procedure, typically 37248 for the initial vein.
How are units counted?
Count each additional vein treated, not the number of stenoses or balloon inflations in that vein. Document the additional veins treated.
How is bilateral treatment reported?
CMS specifies modifier 50 for bilateral treatment and pays the procedure at 150%.
Does 37249 describe angioplasty in a dialysis access circuit?
No. This code is for venous angioplasty outside a dialysis circuit; dialysis-access circuit interventions use the dialysis-circuit code family.
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.
