CPT code 75746: Pulmonary angiography, nonselective injection2026 Medicare rate & RVUs

Medicare pays $134.27 for 75746 nationally in the office. Local office rates run $119.53–$178.59.

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

What 75746 covers

This service covers radiographic imaging and interpretation of the pulmonary arterial circulation after contrast is injected from a nonselective catheter position. It can help evaluate pulmonary arterial anatomy or suspected obstruction. The study is typically performed in a hospital angiography or catheterization suite by an interventional radiologist or cardiologist, with images and a diagnostic interpretation documented in the record.

Choose this code when the pulmonary angiogram is nonselective; selective catheter placement and imaging of one or both sides belong to different pulmonary angiography codes. The report should identify the catheter position, contrast study, images obtained, and findings. The service may be billed globally, or the interpretation with modifier 26 and the equipment and staff portion with modifier TC. When multiple cardiovascular diagnostic procedures are performed, the multiple procedure reduction applies to the technical component.

How to choose

75741Pulmonary angiographyUnilateral selective

Use 75741 for selective unilateral pulmonary angiography. Code 75746 describes nonselective imaging, without selective catheterization of a pulmonary branch.

75743Pulmonary angiographyBilateral selective study

Use 75743 for selective bilateral pulmonary angiography. The distinction from 75746 is selective branch catheterization, not simply the number of images.

93568Pulmonary angiographyNonselective injection

93568 is used for pulmonary angiography performed during cardiac catheterization as an injection procedure. Evaluate that context separately from a standalone pulmonary angiogram.
