What 73225 covers

This study uses magnetic resonance imaging to depict upper-extremity blood vessels, generally arteries, with sequences acquired before and after contrast administration. It may be ordered to assess suspected arterial narrowing, blockage, aneurysm, or other abnormal vessel anatomy. A radiology technologist performs the scan in a hospital imaging department or outpatient imaging center, and a radiologist interprets the images.

Report the code when the examination includes both noncontrast and contrast-enhanced MR angiographic imaging of the upper extremity. The order and imaging report should identify the vascular question and document the performed protocol and findings. CMS lists coverage as restricted to specific circumstances, so the claim must meet the applicable coverage conditions. Bill without a modifier for the global service, or use modifier 26 for interpretation or TC for equipment and staff when billing the component separately. The diagnostic imaging multiple procedure reduction applies to both professional and technical components.
