When inserted the tip of the catheter resides in the superior vena cava or cavoatrial junction. Common uses for PICC lines are chemotherapy, extended antibiotic regimens, total parenteral nutrition (TPN), and blood samples for laboratory tests.

CPT code 36584, for a complete replacement of a PICC without subcutaneous port or pump was revised to include all imaging guidance and documentation and all radiologic supervision and interpretation. This code is not age specific; it can be used for all patients, regardless of age.
01 (Encounter for fitting and adjustment of extracorporeal dialysis catheter). For any other CVC, code Z45. 2 (Encounter for adjustment and management of vascular access device) should be assigned.
PICC stands for "peripherally inserted central catheter." This intravenous catheter is inserted through the skin, into a vein in the arm, in the region above the elbow and below the shoulder. This is a peripheral insertion.
What Are PICC Lines? A peripherally inserted central catheter (PICC line) is a type of central line. A central line (also called a central venous catheter) is like an intravenous (IV) line. But it is much longer than a regular IV and goes all the way up to a vein near the heart or just inside the heart.
During Your Procedure Your PICC will be put in by a doctor or nurse. First, you'll get a numbing injection (shot) where your PICC will be placed. You will not need general anesthesia (medication to make you sleep). Once the area is numb, the doctor or nurse will make a small incision (surgical cut) in your upper arm.
Codes for peripherally inserted central venous catheter (PICC) lines will experience a refresh in the 2019 CPT codebook. Existing codes 36568 (younger than age 5) and 36569 (age 5 and older) are revised to report PICC placement without subcutaneous port or pump, and without imaging guidance.

Question: When coding the placement of an infusion device such as a peripherally inserted central catheter (PICC line), the code assignment for the body part is based on the site in which the device ended up (end placement). For coding purposes, can imaging reports be used to determine the end placement of the device?
Question: ...venous access port. An incision was made in the anterior chest wall and a subcutaneous pocket was created. The catheter was advanced into the vein, tunneled under the skin and attached to the port, which was anchored in the subcutaneous pocket. The incision was closed in layers.
Question: In Coding Clinic, Fourth Quarter 2013, pages 116- 117, information was published about the device character for the insertion of a totally implantable central venous access device (port-a-cath). Although we agree with the device value, the approach value is inaccurate.
Question: A patient diagnosed with Stage IIIC ovarian cancer underwent placement of an intraperitoneal port-a-catheter during total abdominal hysterectomy. An incision on the costal margin in the midclavicular line on the right side was made, and a pocket was formed. A port was then inserted within the pocket and secured with stitches.
Question: The patient has a malfunctioning right internal jugular tunneled catheter. At surgery, the old catheter was removed and a new one placed. Under ultrasound guidance, the jugular was cannulated; the cuff of the old catheter was dissected out; and the entire catheter removed.
