About 75880: Orbital venography interpretation
Reports radiological supervision and interpretation of contrast imaging of the orbital veins when a diagnostic study evaluates venous anatomy or drainage in the eye socket.
This service covers the physician’s supervision and interpretation of contrast imaging that demonstrates the veins within the orbit. It may be performed during a diagnostic evaluation of suspected orbital venous abnormality. A radiologist, often one working in a hospital or interventional radiology setting, reviews the images and documents the findings; the code is specific to orbital veins rather than veins of the skull, neck, or limbs.
Report 75880 when the documented study images orbital veins and the physician provides the corresponding interpretation. The report should identify the anatomy examined and describe the imaging findings. CMS recognizes professional and technical components: use modifier 26 for the interpretation, modifier TC for equipment and staff, or report the global service without either modifier. The cardiovascular diagnostic multiple-procedure reduction applies to the technical component when applicable; it does not identify a reduction to the professional component.
CMS billing rules for 75880
- Professional and technical components
- Diagnostic test with a professional component (modifier 26, interpretation) and a technical component (modifier TC, equipment and staff); billing without a modifier is the global service.
- Multiple procedures
- Cardiovascular diagnostic multiple procedure reduction applies to the technical component.

Office rates for Michigan, from the same CMS release.
75872 concerns epidural venography. The imaged anatomy, not the general use of contrast, distinguishes it from orbital venography.
75860 is for neck venography. Report 75880 when the study and interpretation concern veins within the orbit.

75880 billing questions
How does 75880 differ from 75870?
75880 is for venography of the orbital veins. 75870 is for venography of the cerebral venous sinus, so select according to the anatomy imaged and interpreted.
Which modifiers identify the components?
Append modifier 26 for the professional interpretation or TC for the technical service. Without either modifier, the claim represents the global service.
Does the multiple-procedure reduction affect both components?
CMS applies the cardiovascular diagnostic multiple-procedure reduction to the technical component. The stated rule does not apply that reduction to the professional component.
What should the report document?
Document that the study images orbital veins and include the physician’s interpretation of the findings. The anatomic site helps distinguish this service from venography of the skull or neck.
Does 75880 report the catheter access procedure?
No. This code represents radiological supervision and interpretation of orbital venography; it does not describe catheter placement or access.
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.
