Ligation Of Multiple Hemorrhoids

Illinois rates for HCPCS 46946

This procedure treats hemorrhoids by tying off the blood supply to more than one hemorrhoid cluster inside the lower rectum and anus, causing the tissue to shrink and eventually fall away. It is performed using suture or similar ligation rather than the simpler rubber-band technique, and addresses several affected areas in one session.
