Difficult PTA for Venous Stenosis/Occlusion: Restoring Flow in Hard Cases

Percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA) treats venous narrowing or occlusion; “difficult” cases often involve more complex access or resistant lesions.

What It Costs

• Surgeon fee benchmark: SGD 2,800 – 5,600
• Anaesthetist fee benchmark: Not available

What’s Typically Covered

• Medically required venous angioplasty
• Day procedure/inpatient depending on patient condition

Insurance Tip

Document why it’s “difficult” (occlusion, recurrent stenosis, multiple lesions) if applicable.

Conclusion

Complex PTA keeps venous pathways open. Coverage is typically supportive with good documentation.
