CPT code 75805 indicates physician supervision and interpretation of radiologic imaging of the lymphatic system on one side of the abdominal or pelvic area. This procedure is used in diagnostic evaluation of lymphatic anatomy and pathology when unilateral imaging is sufficient. Nationally, the code matters because it distinguishes laterality and scope of lymphatic imaging, which affects clinical documentation, coding specificity, and payment processing for radiology services.

Key payers addressed include Aetna, Blue Cross Blue Shield, Cigna Health, UnitedHealthcare, and Medicare. The publication offers a national overview of coverage and billing considerations across major commercial carriers and Medicare, highlighting how payers treat laterality-specific lymphatic imaging codes.

Readers will learn the clinical context for use of CPT code 75805, typical sites of service, common billing modifiers (listed separately), and where to find supporting documentation to justify unilateral lymphatic imaging. The report includes benchmark perspectives and policy context relevant to payers and provider billing workflows. Data not available in the input is noted where applicable.
