Cardiologists or thoracic surgeons performing various angiography procedures must use the relevant diagnosis and procedure codes to bill the procedure correctly. The following codes are used for medical billing purposes – ICD-10 Codes. Z98.6 – Angioplasty status; Z98.61 – Coronary angioplasty status; Z98.62 – Peripheral vascular angioplasty status
The new codes are for describing the infusion of tixagevimab and cilgavimab monoclonal antibody (code XW023X7), and the infusion of other new technology monoclonal antibody (code XW023Y7).
Angiography is used to diagnosis vascular disease. Common sites of diagnostic angiograms are the coronary arteries, aorta, ventricles or the heart, carotid or cerebral arteries and the arteries of the leg....Contrast TypeExampleLow osmolarOminpaque, IsovueOther ContrastVisipaque1 more row•Mar 10, 2021
ICD-10-PCS will be the official system of assigning codes to procedures associated with hospital utilization in the United States. ICD-10-PCS codes will support data collection, payment and electronic health records. ICD-10-PCS is a medical classification coding system for procedural codes.
0 for Cardiac catheterization as the cause of abnormal reaction of the patient, or of later complication, without mention of misadventure at the time of the procedure is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Complications of medical and surgical care .
ICD-10-CM Code for Presence of coronary angioplasty implant and graft Z95. 5.
ICD-9-CM is the official system of assigning codes to diagnoses and procedures associated with hospital utilization in the United States. The ICD-9 was used to code and classify mortality data from death certificates until 1999, when use of ICD-10 for mortality coding started.

CPT code 93454 – Coronary Angiography Only. CPT code 93455 – Coronary and Bypass Angiography.
CPT codes 93454 and 93455 (catheter placement, angiography) should be billed, as appropriate, when coronary or bypass angiography without left heart catheterization is performed. CPT codes 93454 and 93455 may be billed only once per catheterization.
Cardiovascular Procedures CPT® Code range 92920- 93799.
Presence of coronary angioplasty implant and graft Z95. 5 is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes. The 2022 edition of ICD-10-CM Z95. 5 became effective on October 1, 2021.

This angiogram is very rarely coded. The CPT® code for Thoracic angiogram is 75605 and should be coded only when the document clearly supports for the thoracic angiogram. Most of the times we get confused, whether it is an arch angiogram or thoracic angiogram. So, do check the documentation to code thoracic angiogram CPT® code 75605.
So, do remember for using this code, always check the tip of the position of catheter. The tip of the catheter should be in the spinal arteries to code this CPT® code 75706.This Angiogram CPT® code could not be used when the spinal arteries are studied by placing the catheter in different position.
Visceral Arteries include mesenteric artery, splenic artery, hepatic artery, celiac artery etc. The CPT® code used for visceral angiogram is 75726. This CPT® code includes the abdominal aortogram or angiogram 75625. Therefore, do not code CPT® code 75726 and 75725 together. The code description includes word “SELECTIVE” in it. Hence, should be coded only when the tip of the catheter is present in the visceral arteries.
