What 11732 covers

This add-on code covers simple avulsion of an additional finger or toenail plate, either partially or completely, during the same treatment session as the primary avulsion. A podiatrist, dermatologist, or other qualified clinician may perform it in an office or facility for problems such as an ingrown or traumatically loosened nail. It describes removal of the plate, not excision of the nail matrix for permanent removal.

Report 11732 for each additional nail treated after the first nail, with 11730 as the primary procedure. The record should identify the indication, the digits and sides treated, the number of additional nails, and the work performed. CMS classifies 11732 as an add-on code: it is reported only with a primary procedure, and payment falls within that procedure’s global period.

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.

11732 billing questions

Can 11732 be reported by itself?

No. Report it only with the primary nail avulsion, generally 11730, for additional nails treated in the same session.

How many units of 11732 should be reported?

Report one unit for each nail beyond the first nail avulsed. The first nail is represented by the primary procedure.

Does 11732 include permanent removal of the nail?

No. It represents simple plate avulsion; excision of the nail and matrix for permanent removal is a different service, such as 11750.

What should the procedure note identify?

Document the reason for avulsion, each treated digit and side, the number of additional nails, and whether the plate was partially or completely removed.

How does 11732 differ from 11720?

11732 represents removal of an additional nail plate. 11720 is for debridement of one to five nails, such as reducing diseased or thickened nail material.

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.
