What 11302 covers

This service removes a skin lesion by shaving at or near the skin surface, without excising a full-thickness section of surrounding skin. It applies to a single lesion on the trunk, an arm, or a leg when its documented diameter falls in the 1.1–2.0 cm size group. Dermatologists and other clinicians who perform skin procedures commonly provide it in an office setting; the removed tissue may be submitted for pathology.

Select the code by the lesion’s location and diameter, and document the site, size, removal method, and clinical reason. Report each lesion separately rather than combining measurements. The procedure has a 0-day global period, so same-day preoperative and postoperative care is included. When multiple procedures are performed in one session, the highest-valued procedure is paid in full and the others at 50%. Assistant-at-surgery payment requires documented medical necessity; 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.

11302 billing questions

Which lesion sites qualify for 11302?

Use it for a lesion on the trunk, arm, or leg measuring 1.1–2.0 cm. The shave codes for other anatomic site groups use different code families.

How does 11302 differ from a tangential biopsy?

11302 describes shave removal of the lesion. When the clinician takes only a sample for diagnosis rather than removing the lesion, consider the tangential biopsy code family, such as 11102.

How should multiple lesions be reported?

Report each lesion separately using its own site and diameter. When procedures are performed in the same session, the highest-valued procedure is paid in full and the others at 50%.

Is same-day care included in the procedure?

The 0-day global period includes same-day preoperative and postoperative care. A separate service requires its own support and must not represent that included care.

Can an assistant or another surgeon be reported?

Assistant-at-surgery payment is allowed only when medical necessity is documented. Co-surgeons and team surgery are not permitted for this code.

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.
