Alaska rates for HCPCS 73525

The x-ray imaging and the radiologist's interpretation for a hip arthrogram, a study in which contrast dye placed in the hip joint outlines the structures inside it.

Putting the dye into the joint is a separate service, and the study is often followed by MRI or CT for more detail.
