ENDO-47409-AJ 2 Medicare Transitional Pass-Through (TPT) Payment Category Applicable to EXALT™ Model D Single Use Duodenoscope The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) has approved Boston Scientific’s application for a transitional pass- through (TPT) payment category to describe single-use endoscopes, such as the EXALT™ Model D Single-Use Duodenoscope. Effective July 1, 2020, the new device pass-through code (C1748) may be used to bill for EXALT Model D when used in the treatment of Medicare patients in the hospital outpatient setting. This device specific payment is in addition to the endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) procedure payment and is intended to cover the cost of the device. TRANSITIONAL PASS-THROUGH CODE The following HCPCS code must be reported on the claim for a hospital to be eligible for TPT payment. Status HCPCS Long Descriptor Indicator C1748 H* Endoscope, single-use (i.e., disposable), upper GI, imaging/illumination device (insertable) The CMS guidance on the new device transitional pass-through category is available at: http://www.cms.gov/files/document/r10166cp.pdf (See Section 7 and Tables 8 & 9). *C1748 has a Medicare status indicator of “H” and therefore is not subject to copayment Medicare patients treated in the outpatient setting will not incur any additional costs for the utilization of EXALT Model D during an ERCP procedure. REPORTING FOR PROCEDURE AND DEVICE ON A CLAIM When physicians perform an ERCP procedure on a Medicare patient in the hospital outpatient setting with EXALT Model D, hospitals, if appropriate, may bill: Procedure coding: Appropriate ERCP CPT code(s) plus Device HCPCS code: C1748 Device Revenue Code: EXALT Model D is a single use sterile device and may be reported using revenue code 278 - Medical/surgical supplies and devices; other implants.

The aim of this study was to evaluate the long-term treatment ef- fect of vascular stents in the management of PVS after LT. In the present study, follow-up data on 16 patients who received vascular stents for PVS after LT between July 2011 and May 2015 were analyzed. Of these, five patients had portal hypertension-related signs and symptoms. All procedures were performed with direct puncture of the intrahepatic portal vein and with subsequent stent placement. Embolization was required for significant collateral circulation.

  • Angiogram, Balloon Angioplasty and Stent Placement for Peripheral Arterial Disease
    Form: D-5093 Angiogram, Balloon Angioplasty and Stent Placement for Peripheral Arterial Disease What to expect before, during and after these procedures Check in at: Toronto General Hospital Medical Imaging Reception 1st Floor – Munk Building Date and time of my angiogram: Date: Time: My follow-up appointment: Date: Time: What is an angiogram? An angiogram is a test that lets your doctor see how your blood is flowing (circulating) through your arteries. Using special x-rays, an angiogram shows narrow or blocked arteries, and normal blood vessels. The results are like a “route map” of the blood vessels in your body. Since arteries do not show up on ordinary x-rays, a dye called a contrast is injected into the arteries to make them visible for a short period of time. Two common therapies that can be done during the angiogram are balloon angioplasty and stent placement. What is a balloon angioplasty? Angioplasty is an x-ray guided procedure to open up a blocked or narrowed artery. A plastic tube called a catheter is inserted close to the blocked or narrowed artery, helping a thin wire pass through the blockage or narrowing. A special balloon is then inserted over the wire. The balloon is inflated, flattening the plaque against the artery wall allowing blood to flow again. All balloons, wires and catheters are removed at the end of the procedure. blood vessel plaque inflated balloon balloon catheter 2 What is a stent placement? Sometimes a stent (a small metal mesh tube) is used with the balloon. The doctor places the stent into the artery to hold it open after it has been expanded with the balloon.

  • HAVING a URETERIC STENT What to Expect and How to Manage
    You have been sent home with HAVING A URETERIC STENT What to expect and how to manage 1 INTRODUCTION In patients who have, or might have an obstruction (blockage) of the kidney, an internal drainage tube called a “stent” is commonly placed in the ureter, the tube between the kidney and the bladder. This is placed there in order to prevent of temporarily relieve the obstruction. This information sheet has been given to you to help answer some of the questions you may have about having a ureteric stent inserted. If you have any questions or concerns, please, do not hesitate to speak to a doctor or a nurse caring for you. 2 THE URINARY SYSTEM AND URETERIC STENT THE URINARY SYSTEM AND THE URETER The kidneys produce urine. Normally there are two kidneys situated in the upper part of the abdomen, towards the back. The urine formed in the kidney is carried to the bladder by a fine muscular tube called a ureter. The urinary bladder acts as a reservoir for the urine and when it is full it is emptied via the urethra. Figure 1: The urinary system HOW DOES A KIDNEY BECOME OBSTRUCTED ? Common causes of obstruction of the kidneys and ureter are: -A kidney stone or its fragments moving into the ureter, either spontaneously, or occasionally following such treatment as shock wave therapy. -Narrrowing (stricture) of the ureter anywhere along its path. This can be due. scaring of wall of the ureter, narrowing of the area where the ureter leaves from the kidney (pelvi-ueteric junction) 3 -Temporarily, following an operation or after an instrument has been inserted into the ureter and kidneys.

  • Ischemic Colitis Complicating Major Vascular Surgery Scott R
    Surg Clin N Am 87 (2007) 1099–1114 Ischemic Colitis Complicating Major Vascular Surgery Scott R. Steele, MD, FACS Department of Surgery, Madigan Army Medical Center, Fort Lewis, WA 98431, USA Ischemic colitis is a well-described complication of major vascular surgery, mostly following open abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) repair and endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR), but also with aortoiliac surgery, aortic dissection, and thoracic aneurysm repair [1,2]. Although Boley and colleagues [3] described ischemia of the colon in 1963 as a revers- ible process secondary to vascular occlusion, the term was not coined until 1966, when Marston and colleagues [4] described its three stages of evolu- tion (transient ischemia, late ischemic stricture, and gangrene), along with the natural history of the disease. Furthermore, the development of colonic ischemia as a result of major vascular and aortic surgery has only been well described since the 1970s [5–9]. The original reports were scattered and mostly consisted of autopsy studies, depicting not only the high mortality associated with this condition but also, in retrospect, the relative lack of in- sight as to explanations for its onset and progression. Unfortunately, recent outcomes have not shown much improvement. Luckily, the overall inci- dence remains low, estimated at between 0.6% and 3.1%, with higher rates attributed to ruptured aneurysms, open repair, and emergent surgery [10]. Following the development of ischemic colitis, mortality has been reported to be as high as 67%, highlighting the need for rapidly identifying the com- mencement of symptoms and, perhaps more importantly, those patients at risk, in attempt to prevent its onset [10,11].
