About 37284: Tibial/peroneal vein stent revascularization
Reports straightforward endovascular stent revascularization of an initial tibial or peroneal vein, including same-vessel angioplasty when performed.
This code describes endovascular stent treatment of an initial tibial or peroneal vein as part of deep vein revascularization. The service may include angioplasty in that same vein when performed. It is used in procedures such as deep vein arterialization for limb-threatening ischemia, generally performed by an interventional radiologist, vascular surgeon, or other physician with endovascular expertise in a hospital setting.
Report this code for the initial treated vein when the procedure meets CPT’s straightforward criteria; use the applicable complex code when those criteria are met instead. Documentation should identify the treated vein, the stent placement, any same-vein angioplasty, and the basis for classifying the intervention as straightforward. 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 is paid in full and the others at 50%. Modifier 50 is paid at 150% for bilateral procedures. Assistant-at-surgery payment requires medical-necessity documentation; co-surgeons and team surgery are not permitted.

37284 billing questions
When should 37284 be selected instead of an angioplasty code?
Use 37284 when a stent is placed in the initial tibial or peroneal vein and the intervention meets the straightforward criteria. The code includes angioplasty in that same vein when performed.
Can angioplasty in the stented vein be reported separately?
No. Angioplasty performed within the same vein as the stent is included in 37284.
How is treatment of another straightforward vein reported?
37285 is the add-on code for an additional straightforward vessel treated after the initial vessel. Report the number of additional vessels supported by the operative documentation.
What supports reporting the straightforward rather than complex code?
Document the treated vein, the intervention performed, and the procedural details that support the CPT straightforward classification. Use the complex code when the CPT criteria for complexity are met.
How does modifier 50 affect Medicare payment?
CMS pays a bilateral procedure reported with modifier 50 at 150%.
Can an assistant surgeon be paid for this procedure?
CMS allows assistant-at-surgery payment only when medical necessity is documented. Co-surgeons and team surgery are not permitted.
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.
