Blood Flow Measurement Inside an Additional Heart Artery

Colorado rates for HCPCS 93572

This covers using a specialized pressure- or flow-sensing wire inside an additional artery of the heart, beyond the first one already measured, to determine how much a narrowing is limiting blood flow. The measurement helps a doctor decide whether that narrowing needs to be treated with a stent or other procedure. It is performed during a heart catheterization when more than one artery is being evaluated.
