Medical Codes to Report Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm (AAA) ed

1. Summary - The blog lists the ICD-10 codes and CPT codes for reporting Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm (AAA). Address, 8596 E. 101st Street, Suite H Tulsa, OK 74133

2. Abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is the stretching and enlargement of the aorta. One of the largest blood vessels, the aorta can cause chronic pain and severe internal bleeding if it enlarges or ruptures. Reports from Medscape.com (2019), suggest that abdominal aortic aneurysm rupture is the 13th leading cause of death in the United States, causing an estimated 15,000 deaths per year. Men above 65 years of age who have peripheral atherosclerotic vascular disease are at the greatest risk of this medical condition. As vascular medical billing and coding is a challenging process, physicians can rely on an experienced medical billing and coding company to ensure accurate and timely claim submission. Experts are knowledgeable about the ICD-10 codes and CPT codes for billing abdominal aortic aneurysm.
