Therapeutic apheresis
About 36513: Platelet-directed therapeutic apheresis
Report platelet-directed therapeutic apheresis when blood is processed extracorporeally to remove platelets for treatment of a clinical condition.
This service processes a patient’s blood through an extracorporeal apheresis system to remove platelets while returning other blood components, with replacement fluid as clinically indicated. It is commonly performed by an apheresis or transfusion medicine team in a hospital apheresis unit, including for patients who need rapid platelet reduction because of a serious platelet-related condition.
Select this code when platelets are the therapeutic removal target; codes for removing white cells, red cells, or plasma describe different targets. The record should support the clinical indication and identify the platelet-directed procedure performed. CMS assigns a 0-day global period, so same-day preoperative and postoperative care is included. For multiple procedures in one session, the highest-valued procedure is paid in full and other procedures are subject to the standard 50% reduction. Modifier 50 is inappropriate. CMS does not pay an assistant at surgery and does not permit co-surgeons or team surgery for this service.

36513 billing questions
How do I distinguish this from other therapeutic apheresis codes?
Use this code when platelets are the component removed. Codes 36511, 36512, and 36514 address white cells, red cells, and plasma, respectively.
Is modifier 50 appropriate when both sides are involved?
No. CMS identifies bilateral adjustment as inappropriate for this service because the descriptor or anatomy does not support modifier 50.
Are same-day preoperative and postoperative services included?
Yes. The code has a 0-day global period, with same-day preoperative and postoperative care included.
How does the multiple procedure reduction work?
When multiple procedures are performed in the same session, CMS pays the highest-valued procedure in full and applies the standard 50% reduction to the others.
Can an assistant, co-surgeon, or surgical team be reported?
CMS does not pay an assistant at surgery for this service and does not permit co-surgeon or team-surgery reporting.
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.
