Billing code 75736: Pelvic angiographyMedicare rate & RVUs

Medicare pays $143.29 for 75736 nationally in the office. Local office rates run $127.05–$190.99.

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

What 75736 covers

This code covers radiological supervision and interpretation of selective or more distal catheter-based angiography of pelvic arteries. A radiologist or interventional physician reviews contrast images to assess pelvic arterial anatomy and findings such as suspected hemorrhage, vascular injury, or a lesion being evaluated for treatment. The imaging is commonly performed in a hospital angiography or interventional radiology suite. Catheter placement and any embolization or other treatment are distinct services, supported by their own documentation and coding when performed.

Report the code when the documented study images pelvic arteries through selective catheterization; the report should identify the vessels examined and interpret the findings. Modifier 26 identifies the professional interpretation, while modifier TC identifies the equipment-and-staff service; billing without either modifier represents the global service. When multiple cardiovascular diagnostic procedures are reported, the CMS multiple-procedure reduction applies to the technical component. The professional interpretation is reported separately when appropriate to the billing arrangement.
