  1. need code for implantable (non-tunneled) Port-a-cath, no flouroscopy..

  2. Need more details (like patient agae, Type of catheter, insertation - central vs peripheral etc) to assist you in a better manner.

    You can look for following code (code sereis) for the same.
    36555/36556 - if inserted centrally (central venous system)
    36570-36571 - if perfoemed on inserted periferally

    Hope this can help
