What 11012 covers

An orthopedic or trauma surgeon uses this service to remove contaminated or devitalized tissue, including bone, at the site of an open fracture or dislocation. It may be performed in the operating room during acute injury care. The defining feature is debridement through bone at that injury site; the code also encompasses the skin, subcutaneous tissue, and muscle or fascia addressed in the procedure.

Choose this level from the deepest tissue debrided at the open fracture or dislocation site, and document the injury site, tissues removed, and operative findings supporting bone debridement. This code has 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. CMS prices the code as bilateral; modifier 50 does not increase payment. Assistant-at-surgery payment is restricted, and co-surgeons and team surgery 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.

11012 billing questions

How does 11012 differ from 11010 and 11011?

11012 is selected when debridement at the open fracture or dislocation site reaches bone. 11010 covers skin and subcutaneous tissue, while 11011 includes muscle or fascia but not bone.

Can 11012 be used for routine wound debridement?

No. It describes debridement at an open fracture or dislocation site. For wound debridement outside that injury context, consider the wound-debridement code family selected by tissue depth and area.

What documentation supports reporting 11012?

Document the open fracture or dislocation site, operative findings, and the tissue actually debrided, including bone. The record should support that the work was performed at the injury site.

Does modifier 50 increase payment for bilateral services?

No. CMS prices 11012 as bilateral, and modifier 50 does not increase payment.

How are other procedures in the same session paid?

Under the standard multiple procedure reduction, the highest-valued procedure is paid in full and other procedures are paid at 50% when performed in the same session.

Can an assistant surgeon or co-surgeon be paid for 11012?

Assistant-at-surgery payment is restricted for this code. Co-surgeons and team surgery 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.
