Dilate L Basilic Vn w Cel Impermabl Dev , Perc, New Tech 11

This code describes a procedure where a balloon or similar device is used to widen a narrowed left basilic vein. A specialized intraluminal device, designed to prevent cell passage, is deployed within the vein to maintain patency. This is performed through a percutaneous (through the skin) approach.

This code is used when a patient undergoes a minimally invasive procedure to dilate a stenosed left basilic vein, typically to improve blood flow for dialysis access or to treat venous outflow obstruction. The key distinguishing factor is the use of a cell-impermeable intraluminal device, which is a new technology.

• Ensure documentation specifies the left basilic vein as the treated vessel.
• Verify the use of a "cell impermeable intraluminal device" as this is a new technology group distinction.
• Confirm the approach was percutaneous; open or endoscopic approaches would map to different codes.
