Bypass Graft, Other Plain Radiography Procedure Overview
This procedure group encompasses plain radiography imaging of bypass grafts located in the heart. These procedures use planar display of images developed from capture of external ionizing radiation to visualize bypass grafts and surrounding cardiac structures. Accurate coding of these imaging procedures is important for inpatient reimbursement because it documents the imaging service performed and supports appropriate case mix and payment. Proper coding also ensures the clinical record reflects the diagnostic imaging used in patient care.
