About 33369: TAVR with cardiopulmonary bypass support
An add-on for cardiopulmonary bypass support during transcatheter aortic valve replacement, reported with the primary TAVR procedure documented in the operative record.
This add-on represents cardiopulmonary bypass support used during transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR). TAVR teams, including cardiac surgeons and interventional cardiologists, may perform the procedure in a hospital hybrid operating room or catheterization laboratory. The primary TAVR code describes the valve procedure and access approach; this code captures the bypass-supported service rather than the valve implantation by itself.
Report 33369 only with the primary procedure, as an add-on. The operative report should support that TAVR was performed and that cardiopulmonary bypass support was used; it should also identify the access approach so the appropriate primary TAVR code can be selected. CMS pays this add-on within the primary procedure’s global period. It is not a stand-alone TAVR claim line.

33369 billing questions
Can 33369 be reported by itself?
No. CMS identifies 33369 as an add-on that must be billed with a primary procedure.
What distinguishes 33369 from the primary TAVR code?
The primary code reports the transcatheter valve replacement and its approach. This add-on reports cardiopulmonary bypass support during that procedure.
What documentation supports 33369?
The operative report should document the TAVR, use of cardiopulmonary bypass support, and the access approach needed to select the matching primary procedure code.
How does the global period affect payment?
CMS pays 33369 within the global period of the primary procedure with which it is billed.
Which code identifies the TAVR access approach?
The primary TAVR code identifies the approach. Select it from the operative details and report 33369 as the bypass-support add-on.
