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

What 73719 covers

This study uses magnetic resonance imaging with contrast to assess non-joint structures of a lower limb, including muscle, bone, and soft tissue. A radiology practice typically performs the scan, and a radiologist interprets the images. Examples include evaluating a soft-tissue mass or suspected infection in the thigh or lower leg. When the study is focused on a joint, select from the lower-extremity joint MRI codes instead.

Choose this code when the imaging protocol uses contrast without the corresponding pre-contrast and post-contrast study; code 73720 describes MRI performed both without and with contrast. Documentation should identify the imaged anatomy, contrast protocol, and interpretation. The service may be billed globally, or as the professional interpretation with modifier 26 or the technical service with modifier TC. For bilateral imaging, each side is paid separately at 100%. The diagnostic imaging multiple procedure reduction applies to both professional and technical components.
