C22.3: Angiosarcoma of liver
C22.3, angiosarcoma of liver, is listed as a covered diagnosis in 15 Medicare billing and coding articles that apply to 80 HCPCS Level II codes, including G0299 (Direct skilled nursing services of a registered nurse (rn)…), G0300 (Direct skilled nursing services of a licensed practical…), G0340 (Image-guided robotic linear accelerator-based stereotactic…). 4 of these codes have a 2026 DMEPOS fee schedule amount; E0783 pays $9,917.33 to $11,667.45 (NU) depending on the state. The articles come from 5 Medicare contractors. A listed diagnosis supports medical necessity only; coverage still depends on the LCD's criteria and on documentation in the medical record.
