Use procedure code 93922 as the default code for ABI studies.
The ABI test is done to check for any risk related to Peripheral Artery Disease (PAD). In this condition the arteries of extremities, legs or arms, are narrowed or blocked. Patients suffering from peripheral artery disease are more at a risk of heart attack, leg pain, poor circulation of blood and stroke.Oct 22, 2020
I73. 9 - Peripheral vascular disease, unspecified | ICD-10-CM.
CPT 93922 Coverage In general, most Medicare carriers consider an “ABI” exam without blood-flow waveforms to be part of the general physical examination, and hence do not reimburse for “ABI's” unless waveform analysis is included. CPT 93922 provides coverage for a single-level lower extremity physiologic study.
An ankle-brachial index (ABI) test is a simple way for your doctor to check how well your blood is flowing in your legs. Doctors use this test to check for peripheral artery disease (PAD). When you have this condition, it means you have blockages in the arteries of your arms and legs.Oct 31, 2021
Assessment of the Ankle brachial indices (ABI) only is considered part of the physical examination and is not covered according to Title XVIII of the Social Security Act section 1862 (a) (7) which excludes routine physical examinations and services from Medicare coverage.
The ankle brachial index, or ABI, is a simple test that compares the blood pressure in the upper and lower limbs. Health care providers calculate ABI by dividing the blood pressure in an artery of the ankle by the blood pressure in an artery of the arm. The result is the ABI.
Peripheral Vascular Disease Overview. Peripheral vascular disease, also called PVD, refers to any disease or disorder of the circulatory system outside of the brain and heart. The term can include any disorder that affects any blood vessels. It is, though, often used as a synonym for peripheral artery disease.Nov 8, 2020
288.60 - Leukocytosis, unspecified. ICD-10-CM.
CPT 93922 is defined as "non-invasive physiologic studies of upper or lower extremity arteries, single level, bilateral (e.g., ankle/brachial indices, Doppler waveform analysis, volume plethysmography, transcutaneous oxygen tension measurement)." CPT 93923 is defined as "non-invasive physiologic studies of upper or ...
In 2011, such a situation (three or more levels, unilateral) is now appropriately described by the lesser valued CPT code, 93922. A study which involves one or two levels in a single extremity (unilateral) still requires CPT code 93922 have the -52 modifier appended.
Some consultants believe that if a duplex study such as 93925 is done and ankle/brachial indices are measured, it is appropriate to bill both 93925 and 93922 or 93923. This is justified because the equipment for noninvasive physiologic studies is different than what is required for a duplex study.Jun 15, 2009

Abstract:#N#Non-invasive vascular studies utilize ultrasonic Doppler and physiologic principles to assess irregularities in blood flow in arterial and venous systems. The display may be a two dimensional image with spectral analysis and color flow or a plethysmographic recording.
Non-invasive peripheral arterial vascular studies utilize ultrasonic Doppler and physiologic studies to assess the irregularities in blood flow in arterial systems. These noninvasive peripheral arterial vascular studies include the patient care required to perform the studies, supervision of the studies, and interpretation of study results, with copies for patient records of test results and analysis of all data, including bi-directional vascular flow or imaging when provided.
Diagnostic tests must be ordered by the physician who is treating the beneficiary and the results used in the management of the beneficiary’s specific medical problem. Services are deemed medically necessary when all of the following conditions are met: Signs/symptoms of ischemia or altered blood flow are present;
Plethysmography involves the measurement and recording (by one of several methods) of changes in the size of a body part as modified by the circulation of blood in that part. Noninvasive physiologic studies are performed using equipment separate and distinct from the duplex scanner.
Vascular studies include patient care required to perform the studies, supervision of the studies and interpretation of study results with copies for patient records of hard copy output with analysis of all data, including bidirectional vascular flow or imaging when provided .
