Dialysis CPT Codes for 2024 + Modifiers

If your dialysis codes are incorrect, you could delay or even miss collections, reducing profits. Inaccuracy in billing could even trigger an audit. Make sure you’re up to date on the latest codes to maximize collections.

Dialysis CPT Code Ranges for 2024

Here are the updated dialysis CPT codes for 2024, with a + indicating an add-on code:

• 90935 – hemodialysis procedures.
• 36800 – cannula insertion for hemodialysis, separate procedure; vein to vein.
• 36810 – cannula insertion for hemodialysis, separate procedure; arteriovenous, Scribner type (external).
• 36815 – cannula insertion for hemodialysis, separate procedure; arteriovenous, external revision, or closure.
• 36832 – open revision of an arteriovenous fistula without thrombectomy, applicable to both autogenous or nonautogenous dialysis grafts, as a separate procedure.
