About 35005: Intrathoracic arterial defect repair
Reports surgical repair of an arterial defect within the chest, with code selection based on the vessel location and the operative service performed.
CPT 35005 describes surgical repair of an arterial defect in the chest. A vascular or cardiothoracic surgeon may perform the repair in an operating room when an intrathoracic artery has a defect requiring operative correction. The operative report should identify the affected vessel and location, describe the defect, and document the repair performed. This code is distinct from arterial repairs assigned to other body regions and from codes describing rupture repairs.
Report the code when the documented service and arterial location meet its scope; the operative note should support the anatomical site and work. Medicare assigns a 90-day global period, including the day-before preoperative visit and 90 days of related postoperative care. When multiple procedures occur in the same session, the highest-valued procedure is paid in full and other procedures are subject to the standard 50% multiple-procedure reduction. For bilateral reporting, modifier 50 is paid at 150%. Assistant-at-surgery payment may be allowed; co-surgeon payment requires supporting documentation, and team surgery is not permitted.

35005 billing questions
How is 35005 distinguished from nearby arterial repair codes?
Use 35005 for an arterial defect in the chest. The operative documentation must support the intrathoracic location; neighboring codes may describe repairs in other regions or a rupture circumstance.
What documentation supports reporting 35005?
The operative report should identify the artery and its intrathoracic location, describe the defect, and document the surgical repair performed.
Does the 90-day global period include related postoperative care?
Yes. The day-before preoperative visit and 90 days of related postoperative care are included in the global period.
How are multiple procedures in the same session paid?
The highest-valued procedure is paid in full, and other procedures are subject to the standard 50% multiple-procedure reduction.
Can an assistant or co-surgeon be reported?
Assistant-at-surgery payment may be allowed. Co-surgeon payment requires supporting documentation, and team surgery is not permitted.
How is bilateral reporting handled?
For a bilateral procedure reported with modifier 50, CMS applies the bilateral payment rule at 150%.
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.
