Temporary Balloon Blockage of a Head or Neck Artery

Indiana rates for HCPCS 61623

A catheter is threaded through the blood vessels up to a chosen artery in the head or neck, where a small balloon is inflated to halt flow through it for a short time. While flow is stopped, the person's speech, strength, and awareness are watched closely to see whether the brain tolerates losing that vessel. X-ray imaging guides the catheter throughout and records what happens.
