C7518 is the HCPCS code for “Catheter placement in coronary artery(ies) for coronary angiography, including intraprocedural injection(s) for coronary angiography, imaging supervision and interpretation, with catheter placement(s) in bypass graft(s) (internal mammary, free arterial, venous grafts) including intraprocedural injection(s) for bypass graft angiography with endoluminal imaging of initial coronary vessel or graft using intravascular ultrasound (ivus) or optical coherence tomography (oct) during diagnostic evaluation and/or therapeutic intervention including imaging, supervision, interpretation and report” in CMS’s HCPCS Level II October 2026 release.

CMS lists C7518’s Medicare coverage as “Carrier judgment” and its pricing as “Physician fee schedule – Price established using national RVUs”. Coverage and payment still depend on the patient, the setting, the documentation and the payer.

It uses CMS’s October 2026 release, in effect from Oct 1, 2026 to Dec 31, 2026. It is a reference: confirm the code against the current list and the payer’s rules before you submit it.
