Endovascular revascularization
About 37269: Complex femoral-popliteal stent revascularization
Reports stent-based endovascular treatment of a complex lesion in the femoral or popliteal artery, for the initial treated vessel.
An endovascular specialist treats an obstructive lesion in a femoral or popliteal artery by placing a stent to restore blood flow. Vascular surgeons, interventional radiologists, and interventional cardiologists may perform this service in a hospital or outpatient angiography suite. This code identifies complex-lesion stenting in the initial treated vessel. Selection depends on the arterial territory, the documented lesion classification, and the treatment performed; it is distinct from angioplasty-only treatment and from procedures combining stenting with atherectomy.
Document the target artery and vessel, lesion features supporting complex classification, and stent placement. For an additional treated vessel, use the corresponding additional-vessel code rather than reporting this initial-vessel code again. CMS assigns a 0-day global period, so same-day preoperative and postoperative care is included. When multiple procedures occur in one session, the highest-valued procedure is paid in full and other procedures are subject to the standard 50% reduction. Bilateral reporting with modifier 50 is paid at 150%. An assistant at surgery is paid only when medical necessity is documented; co-surgeons and team surgery are not permitted.

37269 billing questions
How is this code different from the simple-lesion stent code?
This code is for complex-lesion stenting in the femoral or popliteal territory. Use the simple-lesion code when the lesion meets the family’s simple classification instead.
Does this code represent the first or every treated vessel?
It represents the initial treated vessel. Report the corresponding additional-vessel code for another vessel treated in the same territory.
What documentation supports the complex classification?
Record the target artery and vessel, relevant lesion features supporting complex classification, and the stent treatment performed. The documented anatomy and procedure should support the selected code level.
Can angioplasty be separately reported with the stent?
Do not report angioplasty as a separate service solely for balloon work that is part of the stent treatment in the same vessel. Select the code family that matches the treatment performed.
How does the 0-day global period affect same-day care?
Same-day preoperative and postoperative care is included in the procedure’s 0-day global period.
How is bilateral treatment reported under the CMS facts?
For a bilateral procedure, modifier 50 is paid at 150%. The standard multiple-procedure reduction also applies when multiple procedures are performed in the same session.
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.
