What is the CPT code for a VAD?

The CPT codes for inserting an extracorporeal VAD are CPT codes 33975 and 33976. CPT 33975 is coded if a VAD supporting only one of the ventricles is inserted while CPT 33976 is coded if a VAD supporting both ventricles is inserted.

What is the code for a percutaneous VAD?

The CPT codes for inserting a percutaneous VAD are CPT codes 33990 or 33991. CPT 33990 is coded when an artery is accessed to place the VAD. CPT 33991 is coded when both an artery and a vein are accessed to place the VAD. CPT 33991 also includes a transseptal puncture “when performed.” This means you may still code CPT 33991 if both an artery and vein are accessed to place the VAD and no transseptal puncture is required, but you should not add a code like CPT 93462 to report a transseptal puncture when one is required since this work is already included in CPT 33991.

What is the CPT code for intracorporeal VAD?

The CPT code for inserting an intracorporeal VAD is CPT 33979. Unlike extracorporeal VADs, we do not have two different CPT codes to report devices that support a single ventricle vs those that support both ventricles. CPT 33979 is written for a “single ventricle” device. Intracorporeal VADs are most often placed to support only one ventricle, but in very sick patients, particularly those waiting for transplants, you may see an intracorporeal LVAD placed followed by an intracorporeal RVAD. If intracorporeal VADs are placed to support both ventricles, report C PT 33979 and then 33979 again with modifier 59 to represent the two devices inserted.

What are intracorporeal VADs? What are some examples?

Examples of common intracorporeal VADs are the Heart Mate II, the Heart Mate III, and the Heart Ware device. There are different CPT codes for inserting and removing the different types of VADs listed above. In some cases, there are codes for repositioning or replacing parts of the device as well.

What is a VAD in the heart?

A VAD placed to support both ventricles of the heart is sometimes referred to as a biventricular VAD or a BIVAD for short. There are different types of VADs that can be implanted depending on the patient’s condition and the amount of time the patient is expected to need support from the VAD.

What is the difference between a VAD and a RVAD?

A VAD can be placed to support the left ventricle, the right ventricle, or both. A VAD placed to support the left ventricle is sometimes referred to as an LVAD for short while a VAD placed to support the right ventricle is sometimes referred to as an RVAD for short.

How is an extracorporeal VAD inserted?

An extracorporeal VAD is inserted through a more invasive open approach. The surgeon creates a sternotomy or a thoracotomy and inserts what are called “cannulas” (tubes that allow the blood to flow out of the body and into the VAD which then helps to circulate blood back into and through the entire body).
