Placement Of An Implanted Artery Drug Pump

New Mexico rates for HCPCS 36260

Surgery to place a small pump under the skin that delivers medicine straight into an artery. A thin tube runs from the pump into the artery feeding the target organ, most often the liver, so that treatment reaches the tumor in high concentration while the rest of the body is largely spared. The pump is refilled through the skin with a needle at clinic visits.
