About 37258: Infrapopliteal artery stent revascularization
Reports endovascular stent revascularization of a straightforward infrapopliteal arterial lesion in the initial vessel treated during the session.
This code covers endovascular stent treatment of a straightforward lesion in an infrapopliteal artery, such as an anterior tibial, posterior tibial, or peroneal artery. A vascular surgeon, interventional radiologist, or interventional cardiologist may perform the catheter-based procedure for peripheral arterial disease, including limb ischemia, in a hospital or other procedural setting. The code identifies treatment of the initial vessel; the code family distinguishes straightforward from complex lesions and initial from additional vessels.
Report the code when the treated lesion and vessel meet the straightforward-lesion criteria and a stent is placed. The procedure report should identify the target artery, lesion, treatment performed, and whether it was the initial vessel treated. Same-day preoperative and postoperative care is included in the 0-day global period. When multiple procedures are performed in the same session, the highest-valued procedure is paid in full and other procedures at 50%. Modifier 50 for a bilateral procedure is paid at 150%. Assistant-at-surgery payment requires documentation of medical necessity; co-surgeons and team surgery are not permitted.

37258 billing questions
How does this differ from 37254?
Code 37258 describes stent treatment of a straightforward infrapopliteal lesion in the initial vessel. Code 37254 describes angioplasty treatment for that lesion and vessel position.
When should 37259 be reported instead?
Use 37259 for a qualifying additional vessel treated after the initial vessel in the applicable straightforward-lesion stent series. Document the vessels treated and their sequence.
Can angioplasty be separately reported in the stented vessel?
Angioplasty performed as part of stent treatment in the same vessel is included in the revascularization service; do not report it separately for that same treatment.
How are bilateral procedures handled?
For a bilateral procedure reported with modifier 50, CMS pays the code at 150%. The operative documentation should support treatment on both sides.
What documentation supports the straightforward-lesion code?
Document the infrapopliteal target artery, lesion characteristics supporting the straightforward classification, stent treatment, and whether the vessel is the initial vessel 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 indices and the applicable conversion factor. Unavailable or separately priced services are labeled rather than assigned a made-up amount.
