Central Venous Diagnostic Venography: Mapping the “Highway” Before Intervention
Diagnostic venography of central veins (e.g., SVC, brachiocephalic, IVC, iliac veins) is used to assess obstruction, stenosis, thrombosis, or anatomy before planning treatment.
What It Costs
• Surgeon fee benchmark: SGD 1,100 – 2,500
• Anaesthetist fee benchmark: Not available
What’s Typically Covered
• Diagnostic imaging procedures ordered for vascular disease
• Day procedure / short stay, depending on clinical context
Insurance Tip
Make sure documentation states symptoms + clinical question (e.g., dialysis access dysfunction, swelling, suspected obstruction).
Conclusion
Central venography can prevent failed interventions. Insurance usually supports it when clinically justified.
