Airway Stent Placement Through A Scope

Pennsylvania rates for HCPCS 31636

A scope is passed into the airways so the physician can see inside, and a stent, a short tube that props the airway open, is placed in a narrowed breathing tube. Any widening of the airway needed to fit the stent is part of the procedure. Each further airway stented is billed separately.
