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

What 74174 covers

This study uses CT acquisition timed to intravenous contrast to show abdominal and pelvic arteries in cross-sectional detail. Image data may be reconstructed into vascular views to assess aneurysm, dissection, narrowing, blockage, or anatomy before or after vascular treatment. Radiologists interpret the examination, commonly ordered by vascular surgeons, emergency clinicians, and other treating physicians when a vascular question involves both regions. Settings include hospital imaging departments and freestanding imaging centers.

Choose 74174 when the CTA examination includes both abdomen and pelvis; 74175 is the abdomen-only counterpart. The order and report should support the vascular indication and anatomic coverage, contrast-enhanced acquisition, and interpretation. Bill the complete service when one entity furnishes acquisition and interpretation; use modifier 26 for the professional interpretation or TC for technical performance when those components are billed separately. CMS diagnostic imaging multiple-procedure reduction applies to both technical and professional components when it applies to multiple procedures.
