What 11006 covers
This service is extensive surgical excision of infected, nonviable tissue involving the external genitalia, perineum, and abdominal wall in a necrotizing soft-tissue infection. A general surgeon, urologist, or other surgeon managing the infection typically performs it in an operating room; Fournier gangrene extending from the perineum onto the abdominal wall is a characteristic clinical situation. The code reflects the involved regions, not a measured wound area.
Choose this code when the operative work includes all three regions; use the adjacent regional codes when the abdominal wall or the external genitalia and perineum are not both involved. The operative report should identify the necrotizing infection, the anatomical areas treated, and the tissue removed. Medicare assigns a 0-day global period, so same-day preoperative and postoperative care is included. When multiple procedures occur in the same session, the highest-valued procedure is paid in full and other procedures are subject to the standard 50% reduction. Modifier 50 is inappropriate. Medicare does not pay an assistant at surgery for this code, 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.

11006 billing questions
How do I distinguish this code from 11004 or 11005?
This code is for necrotizing infection debridement involving the external genitalia, perineum, and abdominal wall. Use 11004 for the genitalia and perineum without abdominal wall involvement, or 11005 for the abdominal wall.
Can this be reported for routine wound debridement?
It describes operative treatment of a necrotizing soft-tissue infection across the specified regions, not routine wound-bed debridement. Codes such as 11042 or 11043 are distinguished by the tissue level treated in other wound-debridement situations.
Does this code have a global period?
It has a 0-day global period. Same-day preoperative and postoperative care is included.
Can modifier 50 or an assistant-at-surgery modifier be used?
Modifier 50 is inappropriate for this code. Medicare does not pay an assistant at surgery for this service.
How are other procedures in the same operative session paid?
The highest-valued procedure is paid in full, and other procedures are subject to the standard multiple-procedure reduction. Co-surgeon and team-surgery billing are not permitted.
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.
