About 37283: Complex tibial-peroneal angioplasty, additional vessel
Reports complex endovascular angioplasty of each additional tibial or peroneal vessel treated after the primary complex vessel procedure.
This add-on code describes complex endovascular angioplasty in an additional tibial or peroneal artery during lower-extremity revascularization. The service is typically performed by a vascular surgeon, interventional radiologist, or interventional cardiologist in an angiography or catheterization setting. It is for an additional vessel, not the first vessel treated in the complex angioplasty service.
Report 37283 with the primary complex angioplasty code, 37282, when another vessel in the tibial/peroneal territory receives treatment meeting the applicable complex-service criteria. Documentation should identify the treated vessel and lesion, describe the intervention, and support the complex designation. The code is an add-on and is paid within the primary procedure’s global period. For a bilateral procedure reported with modifier 50, CMS pays this code at 150%.
