About 92933: Coronary atherectomy with stent
Reports coronary atherectomy with stent placement in one major coronary artery or branch, including balloon angioplasty when performed during the intervention.
An interventional cardiologist uses a catheter-based technique to remove or modify obstructive coronary plaque and place an intracoronary stent in one major coronary artery or branch. A typical setting is a cardiac catheterization laboratory, where a calcified coronary lesion may be treated with atherectomy before stenting. Balloon angioplasty performed as part of that intervention is included in this service.
Report 92933 for the atherectomy-and-stent intervention in one major artery or branch; report 92934 for a qualifying additional branch. The procedure report should identify the treated artery or branch and document both atherectomy and stent placement. CMS assigns a 0-day global period, so same-day preoperative and postoperative care is included. When multiple procedures occur in the same session, the highest-valued procedure is paid in full and others are subject to the standard 50% reduction. Modifier 50 is inappropriate. Assistant-at-surgery payment requires documented medical necessity; co-surgeons and team surgery are not permitted.

92933 billing questions
Can balloon angioplasty be reported separately with 92933?
No. Balloon angioplasty performed as part of the atherectomy-and-stent intervention is included in 92933.
What code applies when another major coronary branch is treated?
Use 92934 for a qualifying additional branch treated with atherectomy and stenting. The procedure report should support the additional branch intervention.
What documentation supports 92933?
Document the treated major coronary artery or branch and the performance of both atherectomy and intracoronary stent placement. Include angioplasty in the procedural documentation when performed.
Can modifier 50 be used for 92933?
No. CMS identifies bilateral adjustment as inappropriate for this code.
How does Medicare apply multiple-procedure reduction?
For multiple procedures in the same session, the highest-valued procedure is paid in full and the others are subject to the standard 50% reduction.
Can an assistant or co-surgeon be reported?
Assistant-at-surgery payment requires documentation of medical necessity. Co-surgeons and team surgery are not permitted.
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.
