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

What 73206 covers

This study uses computed tomography to depict arteries in an upper extremity, with image acquisition both before and after contrast administration. It is commonly used to evaluate suspected arterial narrowing or blockage, aneurysm, vascular injury, or anatomy before a vascular procedure. A radiology team performs the scan, and a qualified interpreting professional reviews the images and provides a report in settings such as a hospital or imaging center.

Select this code when the examination is an angiographic study of upper extremity vessels and includes both noncontrast and contrast-enhanced imaging. The order and report should support the vascular indication, examined extremity, and angiographic interpretation. Bill the global service without a component modifier, or report the interpretation with modifier 26 and the equipment-and-staff portion with modifier TC. CMS applies the diagnostic imaging multiple-procedure reduction to both the technical and professional components.
