CPT code 75889: Hepatic venography, with hemodynamic evaluation2026 Medicare rate & RVUs

Medicare pays $122.25 for 75889 nationally in the office. Local office rates run $109.20–$161.25.

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

What 75889 covers

This service covers radiologic supervision and interpretation of contrast imaging of the hepatic veins together with hemodynamic evaluation. It is typically part of an interventional radiology or diagnostic imaging encounter when the clinical question requires assessment of hepatic venous anatomy and related pressure information. The interpreting physician evaluates the acquired images and hemodynamic findings and documents the relevant results in the report.

Select this code when the documented service includes both hepatic venography and hemodynamic evaluation; venography without that evaluation is represented by a different code. The report should support the hepatic venous study and the hemodynamic assessment performed. Medicare recognizes professional and technical components: report modifier 26 for the interpretation, modifier TC for equipment and staff, or neither modifier for the global service. The cardiovascular diagnostic multiple procedure reduction applies to the technical component, so it may affect the technical portion when multiple applicable procedures are performed.
