Endovascular revascularization

About 37262: Small-artery intravascular lithotripsy add-on

Reports intravascular lithotripsy during peripheral revascularization of an additional small artery, with angioplasty in that same vessel.

This add-on represents intravascular lithotripsy used to modify calcified plaque in an additional small peripheral artery during an endovascular revascularization. A vascular surgeon, interventional radiologist, or other endovascular specialist may perform the treatment in an angiography suite or operating room. The lithotripsy is performed within the treated artery, with angioplasty in that same vessel included in the service. Small lower-extremity arteries such as tibial or peroneal arteries are typical sites when supported by the operative report.

Report 37262 only with a qualifying primary revascularization procedure for the same encounter; it is not a stand-alone service. The record should identify the treated artery, the additional-vessel status, use of intravascular lithotripsy, and the associated angioplasty. CMS treats payment as included within the primary procedure's global period. For bilateral reporting with modifier 50, CMS pays the code at 150% of its otherwise applicable amount.

37262 billing questions

Can 37262 be billed by itself?

No. It is an add-on code and must be reported with a qualifying primary procedure for the same encounter.

What documentation supports the additional-vessel reporting?

Document the specific artery treated, the separate additional-vessel treatment, and the intravascular lithotripsy and angioplasty performed in that vessel.

Does 37262 include angioplasty?

Yes. Angioplasty within the same vessel is part of the lithotripsy service described by this code.

How does the global-period rule affect payment?

CMS pays this add-on within the global period of its primary procedure; it is not separately paid as an independent service.

How is bilateral treatment reported?

When bilateral reporting with modifier 50 applies, CMS pays 37262 at 150% of its otherwise applicable amount.

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.
