Surrounding tissue that provides support for the valve may also weaken. Both problems can typically be repaired through surgery on the aortic valve. Often, repairing an aortic valve involves treating an enlarged ascending aorta, the first section of the blood vessel leading from the valve.
Until recently, aortic valve replacement was an open-heart procedure. That made it too dangerous for many older people with other health problems. A new procedure, transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR), is safer. It does not require opening the chest.

As per American Medical Association (AMA) requirements for TAVR, TAVR is a two-physician (IC & CS) procedure. Payment for each physician is 62.5% of the established national average payment. +33367,33368 and 33369 are add-on codes which do not require modifier 62 hence each physician payment of 62.5% does not apply.
Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) is a procedure that replaces a diseased aortic valve with a man-made valve. Aortic valve replacement can also be performed with open-heart surgery; this procedure is surgical aortic valve replacement (SAVR).
