Connecticut rates for HCPCS 36483

Closes a leaky varicose vein in an arm or a leg by delivering a small amount of medical adhesive through a thin tube, sealing the vein shut so blood reroutes through healthier veins. This covers each further vein treated in the same limb during the visit, each entered through its own puncture site. It is billed in addition to the first vein treated.
