Endovascular revascularization
About 37276: Femoropopliteal stenting and atherectomy, additional vessel
Reports stent placement with atherectomy in an additional femoropopliteal vessel for simple peripheral arterial disease treatment.
This add-on describes endovascular treatment of an additional femoropopliteal vessel when the service includes both atherectomy and stent placement. The treating specialist uses a catheter-based approach to remove or reduce plaque and place a stent; balloon angioplasty in the treated vessel may also be performed. Vascular surgeons, interventional radiologists, and interventional cardiologists may perform these procedures in a hospital endovascular suite for obstructive peripheral arterial disease.
Report the code for each additional vessel treated, not for each stent or each lesion. The operative report should identify the femoropopliteal vessel, the intervention performed, and the facts supporting the CPT simple-lesion classification. This is an add-on code and must accompany a primary procedure; CMS pays it within that procedure's global period. For a bilateral procedure reported with modifier 50, CMS pays 150% of the applicable amount.

37276 billing questions
How is this code different from 37275?
37275 describes the first vessel treated with the simple-lesion combination of stenting and atherectomy. Use 37276 for each additional vessel treated with that combination.
Is the code reported per stent or per lesion?
No. The unit is each additional vessel treated, not the number of stents placed or lesions treated within that vessel.
Can 37276 be reported by itself?
No. It is an add-on code and must be billed with a primary procedure; CMS pays it within the primary procedure's global period.
What documentation supports the simple classification?
Document the treated vessel, the atherectomy and stent work, and the lesion characteristics supporting the CPT simple-lesion category.
How is bilateral treatment paid when modifier 50 is used?
CMS pays a bilateral procedure reported with modifier 50 at 150% of the applicable amount.
Where these rates come from
