Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The appropriate codes for the service are 38200 (Injection Procedure for Splenoportography) and 75810 (Splenoportography, Radiological Supervision and Interpretation). The modifier -26 does not need to be included on the claim because the code for 75810already includes the supervision and interpretation component.
