What 11300 covers

A clinician removes a small, raised or superficial skin lesion by shaving through the epidermis and into the dermis, rather than excising the lesion through its full thickness. Dermatologists, primary care clinicians, and other qualified practitioners commonly perform this service in an office; it may also be performed in a facility. The specimen may be submitted for histopathologic examination when indicated.

Select this code for a lesion on the trunk, arm, or leg that measures 0.5 cm or less. Document the lesion’s location, size, clinical reason for removal, and shave technique; report each lesion separately rather than combining measurements. The 0-day global period includes same-day preoperative and postoperative care. When multiple procedures occur in one session, the highest-valued procedure is paid in full and other procedures are subject to the standard 50% reduction. Assistant-at-surgery payment requires documented medical necessity; co-surgeon and team-surgery payment 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.

11300 billing questions

Which body sites qualify for this code?

Use it for a lesion on the trunk, arm, or leg measuring 0.5 cm or less. Site-specific shave codes apply to other body regions.

How is the lesion size selected?

Use the lesion’s measured size before removal, not the size of the specimen after shaving. This code is for lesions measuring 0.5 cm or less.

Can this code be used for a diagnostic biopsy?

Use this code when the clinician shaves off the lesion itself. A tangential biopsy code such as 11102 is generally considered when the service obtains a diagnostic sample rather than removing the lesion.

Is same-day care included in the procedure?

Yes. The 0-day global period includes same-day preoperative and postoperative care.

How are multiple procedures paid in one session?

The highest-valued procedure is paid in full, and other procedures in the same session are subject to the standard multiple procedure reduction.

What should the record show?

Document the exact body site, lesion size, clinical indication, and shave technique. When multiple lesions are treated, identify each lesion separately.

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.
