What 11107 covers

An incisional skin biopsy removes a portion of a lesion for diagnostic examination rather than sampling it with a punch or tangential shave. Dermatologists and other clinicians may use this approach when a lesion needs tissue sampling but is not being completely removed. Code 11107 represents each additional separate lesion sampled by this method; the first lesion is reported with 11106. Simple closure, when performed, is included in the biopsy service.

Document the incisional technique and identify each separately sampled lesion, including its site, so the additional-lesion count is clear. Report 11107 only with the primary incisional biopsy code 11106; it is not a stand-alone service. CMS treats this add-on service as paid within the primary procedure's global period. Choose the biopsy code by the method used for each lesion: incisional sampling is distinct from punch or tangential sampling.

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.

11107 billing questions

Can 11107 be reported without 11106?

No. 11107 is an add-on code and must be reported with 11106 for the primary incisional skin biopsy.

How many units of 11107 should be reported?

Report one unit for each additional, separate lesion sampled by incisional biopsy beyond the lesion represented by 11106.

How is an incisional biopsy distinguished from a punch biopsy?

Use 11107 when the clinician samples part of an additional lesion using an incisional technique. Use the punch biopsy family when a punch instrument is used to obtain the tissue.

Is simple closure separately reported with 11107?

Simple closure, when performed as part of the biopsy, is included in the service.

What documentation supports reporting multiple units?

Record the incisional method and identify the site of each separately sampled lesion, distinguishing each additional lesion from the one reported with 11106.

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.
