CPT code 36471 refers to the procedure of performing a therapeutic phlebotomy, which involves the removal of blood for treatment purposes, typically to manage conditions like hemochromatosis or polycythemia vera. This code specifically indicates that the procedure was done through a venipuncture technique and involves the removal of a specified volume of blood. It is often used to document the therapeutic aspect of blood removal rather than for diagnostic purposes.
