Introduction to Interventional Radiology Coding course is geared towards the brand new interventional radiology coder or someone who is interested in the field.

The Non-Vascular Interventional Coding Webinars offer a comprehensive curriculum on Non-Vascular Interventional procedures.

This webinar begins with the basics of successfully choosing the correct catheter selection codes during complex diagnostic and interventional cases. It focuses on physician documentation, anatomy (normal and variant), vascular systems, vascular orders, vascular families, and selective vs. non-selective catheter placement.

This webinar builds on the coding basics by discussing physician documentation and reviewing catheter selection codes. Reviews the imaging supervision and interpretation (S&I) 70,000 series of CPT codes. Extremity, visceral, cervicocerebral, thoracic, and abdominal arterial studies as well as venous, pulmonary, and portal venous imaging codes are covered in this webinar as well.

This webinar covers procedures in the subspecialty area of neuroradiology. These are complex endovascular procedures that involve vascular imaging and intervention in the head, neck, and spine. We discuss intracranial angioplasty, vasospasm therapy, embolization procedures, venous sampling, thrombolysis, and thrombectomy, as well as carotid, vertebral, and intracranial stenting. Some non-vascular interventions are also reviewed.

CPT® Coding for Gastrointestinal Interventions takes you through all the gastrointestinal procedures that are performed via a natural orifice (nose or mouth) or via a percutaneous approach.

CPT® Coding for Percutaneous Biliary Tract Interventions discusses biliary tract procedures that are performed percutaneously.

CPT® Coding for Transvenous and Leadless Cardiac Pacemakers covers the appropriate coding of all procedures regarding cardiac pacemakers.

CPT® Coding for Diagnostic Cardiac Catheterizations covers all of the diagnostic cardiac catheterization procedure codes.

CPT® Coding for Image-Guided Percutaneous Fluid Collection Drainage & Management Procedures offers a thorough discussion of the coding guidelines for performing initial drainage procedures.

CPT® Coding for Aortic Endografts covers placement of stent grafts in the thoracic and lumbar sections of the aorta using a transcatheter approach.

CPT® Coding for Transcatheter Infusion Therapy details the different types of transcatheter infusions performed in an imaging lab and the rules surrounding the coding of these services.

CPT® Coding for Abdominal Aortography and Lower Extremity Angiography includes coding instructions for imaging of the abdominal aorta and the extremity arteries whether performed in combination or separately.

CPT® Coding for Diagnostic Venography takes you through the coding of all types of diagnostic venography procedures.

CPT® Coding for Non-Coronary Vascular Stent Placement shows students how to accurately assign CPT codes to vascular stents placed in non-coronary/non-lower extremity revascularization vessels.

CPT® Coding for Cervicocerebral Arteriography takes the student through the new rules for coding diagnostic angiography.
