About 32701: Thoracic stereotactic radiation target delineation
Reports the physician’s professional work defining a thoracic stereotactic radiation target, such as a lung lesion, for a treatment course.
This code represents the physician’s work in identifying and delineating a target in the thorax for stereotactic radiation treatment. A radiation oncologist typically uses diagnostic and treatment-planning images to define the target and document the clinical interpretation supporting the planned treatment. Thoracic targets may include lung lesions or other targets within the chest.
Report the code for the professional interpretation and report associated with thoracic target work, not for radiation machine delivery. The physician’s documentation should identify the thoracic target and support its delineation for stereotactic treatment. CMS classifies this as a professional-component-only code: a separate code covers the technical portion. The professional service and technical service therefore represent distinct portions of the work and should be reported using their respective codes.

32701 billing questions
What distinguishes this code from stereotactic radiation delivery?
This code represents the professional work of thoracic target delineation and its interpretation and report. The radiation delivery service reports treatment fractions delivered by the equipment.
Does this code include the technical portion?
No. CMS identifies it as professional-component-only; a separate code covers the technical portion.
What documentation supports reporting it?
Document the thoracic target and the physician’s interpretation and report supporting its delineation for stereotactic treatment.
Is this code reported per treatment fraction?
It represents the physician’s target-related professional work, rather than reporting each radiation delivery fraction. Report the delivery service separately when performed.
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.
