About 34710: Delayed endovascular graft extension placement
Reports delayed placement of an endovascular graft extension after prior infrarenal aortic or iliac repair, for the first treated vessel.
This service covers a later procedure to place an extension prosthesis after endovascular repair of the infrarenal aorta or an iliac artery. The extension may address a seal problem or endoleak after the original repair. The vascular surgeon uses imaging to assess the target zone, measure the vessel, and guide placement; the code includes associated radiological supervision and interpretation. It is reported for the initial vessel treated in the delayed procedure, not for extension placement performed as part of the original repair.
The operative report should identify the prior endovascular repair, the reason for the delayed extension, the vessel treated, and the imaging and placement performed. Report 34711 for each additional vessel treated. CMS assigns a 90-day global period, including the day-before preoperative visit and 90 days of related postoperative care. When multiple procedures are performed in the same session, the highest-valued procedure is paid in full and others at 50%. Assistant-at-surgery payment may be made, and co-surgeons are permitted; team surgery is not permitted. The code is not adjusted bilaterally, and modifier 50 is inappropriate.

34710 billing questions
How does 34710 differ from 34709?
34710 is for delayed extension placement after a prior endovascular repair. 34709 describes extension placement performed in conjunction with the endovascular repair.
When is 34711 reported with 34710?
Report 34710 for the initial vessel and 34711 for each additional vessel treated during the delayed extension procedure.
Are imaging and radiological interpretation separately reported?
The code includes associated radiological supervision and interpretation, target-zone assessment, vessel measurement, and imaging guidance when performed.
Does modifier 50 apply when extensions are placed on both sides?
No. CMS identifies bilateral adjustment as inappropriate for this code; use the initial-vessel and additional-vessel coding structure when applicable.
What documentation supports delayed placement?
Document the prior endovascular repair, the clinical reason for the later extension, the vessel treated, and the imaging assessment and graft placement performed.
What does the 90-day global period include?
It includes the day-before preoperative visit and 90 days of related postoperative care.
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.
