What 10080 covers

This service is a limited incision and drainage of a pilonidal cyst or abscess in the cleft between the buttocks. A physician or other qualified practitioner typically performs it in an office, emergency department, or outpatient setting, often using local anesthesia. The aim is to release the collection rather than excise the pilonidal tract or cyst.

Select this code for a simple drainage; use the complex pilonidal code when the procedure is more involved. The note should identify the pilonidal site and describe the incision and drainage performed. Medicare assigns a 10-day global period, so related postoperative visits during that period are included. For multiple procedures in one session, the highest-valued procedure is paid in full and other procedures are subject to a 50% reduction. Modifier 50 is inappropriate for this code. Medicare does not pay for an assistant at surgery, and co-surgeon and team-surgery billing are not permitted.

This summary was written with AI assistance from CMS physician fee schedule data and checked against the CMS billing rules shown here. Rates on this page come directly from CMS files.

10080 billing questions

How does this differ from the complex pilonidal drainage code?

Use this code for a simple drainage. The complex pilonidal code is for a more involved drainage procedure; document the work performed to support the selection.

Can this be reported for a routine skin abscess?

No. This code is specific to a pilonidal cyst or abscess. A simple or complex abscess elsewhere is reported with the applicable abscess drainage code.

Are related postoperative visits separately billable?

Related postoperative visits during the 10-day global period are included in this procedure's payment.

Should modifier 50 be appended for bilateral disease?

No. The bilateral adjustment does not apply, and modifier 50 is inappropriate for this code.

Can an assistant, co-surgeon, or surgical team be billed?

Medicare does not pay an assistant at surgery for this service. Co-surgeons and team surgery are not permitted.

What happens if another procedure is performed in the same session?

The highest-valued procedure is paid in full; other procedures are subject to the standard multiple-procedure reduction.

Where these rates come from

FeeBase calculates base physician payments from CMS work, practice-expense and malpractice RVUs, adjusted by each locality’s geographic indexes and the conversion factor. Services without a published rate are labeled, never given a made-up amount. Amounts are Medicare allowed amounts before claim adjustments: not a patient’s bill or a commercial rate.
