What 93592 covers

Code 93592 captures treatment of a paravalvular leak at each additional valve after the initial valve is addressed. These procedures are typically performed by an interventional cardiologist or structural heart team in a cardiac catheterization laboratory, using catheter-based devices to close the leak around a prosthetic valve. The code represents an additional valve site, not another device or another leak at the valve already treated.

Report 93592 only with the applicable primary valve-closure procedure, such as 93590 for a mitral valve or 93591 for an aortic valve. The operative report should identify the valve sites treated and support that closure was performed at an additional valve. As an add-on code, 93592 is paid only with a primary procedure and within that procedure’s global period; it is not reported as a stand-alone service.

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.

93592 billing questions

When is 93592 reported instead of 93590 or 93591?

Use 93590 or 93591 for the primary mitral or aortic valve closure, respectively. Report 93592 for each additional valve treated during the procedure.

Can 93592 be billed by itself?

No. It is an add-on code and must be reported with an applicable primary valve-closure procedure.

What documentation supports an additional unit?

Document the valve site treated and the closure performed there. The record should distinguish each additional valve from the primary valve site.

Does the primary procedure's global period affect 93592?

Yes. CMS treats this add-on service as paid within the primary procedure's global period.

Does 93592 describe another leak at the same valve?

No. It identifies closure at each additional valve, rather than another leak or device at the valve already treated.

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.
