What 75635 covers
This examination uses contrast-enhanced CT to depict the abdominal aorta and arterial circulation through both lower extremities. It is commonly used to assess aortoiliac or peripheral arterial disease, including suspected stenosis or occlusion, and to map vascular anatomy before treatment planning. A technologist acquires the images; a radiologist or other qualified physician interprets them. Noncontrast images, when obtained, and image postprocessing are included in the CTA service.
Report one unit for the combined examination, not a separate unit per leg. The order, clinical indication, documented anatomic coverage, and physician interpretation should support the study. When one entity bills for the complete service, report without a component modifier; use modifier 26 for the professional interpretation or TC for the technical service when those portions are billed separately. CMS applies the diagnostic imaging multiple procedure reduction to both the technical and professional components.
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.

75635 billing questions
How is this different from abdominal aortography with runoff?
75635 is CT angiography. Code 75630 describes catheter-based contrast aortography with bilateral iliofemoral lower-extremity runoff.
Can the interpretation and scan be billed separately?
Yes. Report modifier 26 for the professional interpretation and TC for the technical service; billing without a modifier represents the global service.
Are image postprocessing or noncontrast images separately reported?
They are included in this CTA service when performed as part of the examination.
Should the study be reported once for each leg?
No. Report one unit for the combined examination of the abdominal aorta and bilateral lower-extremity arterial runoff.
How does the multiple procedure reduction affect component claims?
CMS applies the diagnostic imaging multiple procedure reduction to both the technical and professional components.
Where these rates come from
FeeBase calculates base physician payments from CMS work, practice-expense and malpractice RVUs, adjusted by each locality’s geographic indexes and the conversion factor. Services without a published rate are labeled, never given a made-up amount. Amounts are Medicare allowed amounts before claim adjustments: not a patient’s bill or a commercial rate.
