Terminology for Vascular Anomalies – (Items 45027 to 45045)

For further guidance on terminology used for vascular anomalies, providers are encouraged to consult the classification of the International Society for the Study of Vascular Anomalies (ISSVA) 2018 at https://www.issva.org/classification.

Where a haemangioma has been medically treated and there is only a residuum present, the appropriate MBS item should relate to the size of the residuum and not the size of the original haemangioma.
