Needle Placement Into An Arm Or Leg Artery

Hawaii rates for HCPCS 36140

This is the placement of a needle or small catheter directly into an artery in the arm or leg to gain access to the bloodstream, most often as the first step before a procedure such as an angiogram or other vascular treatment. It is a hands-on access procedure rather than an imaging scan on its own. Local numbing medicine is used at the site before the needle is inserted.
