What 49407 covers

This service places a drainage catheter into a pelvic fluid collection using a transvaginal or transrectal approach and image guidance. Interventional radiologists commonly perform it in a hospital or other facility for collections that can be accessed through the vagina or rectum, including selected postoperative pelvic abscesses. The catheter provides ongoing drainage; needle aspiration alone is not the defining service.

Choose this code when the documented access route is transvaginal or transrectal, rather than selecting a code for a visceral, peritoneal, or retroperitoneal collection. The report should identify the collection, its location, the access route, image guidance, and catheter placement. The code includes the image-guided drainage service. CMS assigns a 0-day global period, so same-day preoperative and postoperative care is included. When multiple procedures are performed in the same session, the highest-valued procedure is paid in full and the others are subject to the standard 50% reduction. CMS restricts assistant-at-surgery payment and does not permit co-surgeon or team-surgery billing for this service.

This summary was written with AI assistance from CMS physician fee schedule data and checked against the CMS billing rules shown here. Rates on this page come directly from CMS files.
