Hello,


My question is on coding for the midline catheter placement (peripheral venous acess)

The only code I find is 36569- Inseration of peripherally inserted central venous catheter (PICC); all references state use this code for a midline as well. Would it be correct to append modifier 52 because you are not advancing the line to the subclavin vein occlusion?

Thanks
