Vascular surgery

About 35632: Iliac-to-celiac artery bypass

Open bypass from an iliac artery to the celiac artery with a nonvenous conduit, reported for surgical revascularization of compromised celiac blood flow.

This open vascular operation reroutes blood from an iliac artery to the celiac artery using a conduit other than vein, commonly a prosthetic graft. Vascular surgeons may perform it for celiac artery occlusive disease affecting blood flow to the upper abdominal organs, including in selected patients with chronic mesenteric ischemia. It is performed in an operating room, not as an endovascular intervention.

The operative report should identify the iliac inflow artery, celiac recipient, conduit material, and indication. Choose a different bypass code when the inflow is the aorta or the graft terminates at another visceral artery. CMS assigns a 90-day global period, including the day-before preoperative visit and 90 days of related postoperative care. When multiple procedures occur in one session, the highest-valued procedure is paid in full and others at 50%. Modifier 50 receives bilateral payment at 150%. Assistant-at-surgery payment may be allowed; co-surgeon payment requires supporting documentation, and team surgery is not permitted.

35632 billing questions

How is this different from 35631?

This code uses an iliac artery as the bypass inflow and the celiac artery as the destination. Code 35631 is for aortic inflow to specified visceral arteries, including the celiac artery.

Does the conduit have to be a prosthetic graft?

The code is for a conduit other than vein. A prosthetic graft is common, but the operative report should establish the conduit used.

What documentation supports this code?

Document the iliac inflow, celiac artery destination, conduit material, and clinical reason for the bypass. The documented target helps distinguish this from iliac-to-mesenteric or iliac-to-renal bypass.

How does the 90-day global period affect postoperative billing?

The day-before preoperative visit and 90 days of related postoperative care are included in the global period.

How are other same-session procedures and surgical assistants handled?

For multiple procedures in one session, the highest-valued procedure is paid in full and the others at 50%. Assistant-at-surgery payment may be allowed; co-surgeon payment requires supporting documentation, and team surgery is not permitted.
