How to report the use of a vascular closure device

How do I report the use of a vascular closure device, such as an angioseal, placed into the arterial or venous site after an intervention?

Answer:
There is no CPT code for the placement of a vascular closure device.  This is considered inclusive to the interventional procedure. Medicare has established a G code (G0269) for recording this activity, however it’s payment status in the Medicare physician’s fee schedule is as a bundled service and not separately payable.
