What 14301 covers

This code covers reconstruction using nearby tissue that is cut and moved or rearranged to close a defect, such as with an advancement, rotation, or transposition flap. Plastic, dermatologic, and other surgeons commonly perform the service after skin cancer removal or treatment of another lesion leaves a defect too large or poorly suited to simple closure. The code applies to any anatomic area when the measured defect falls within this size level.

Select the code from the documented defect area, rather than the flap’s dimensions; document the relevant defect measurements, including primary and secondary defects when applicable. Code 14302 may be reported for each additional 30 square centimeters or part thereof. The 90-day global period includes the day-before preoperative visit and 90 days of related postoperative care. When multiple procedures are performed in the same session, the highest-valued procedure is paid in full and others at 50%. Modifier 50 is inappropriate. Assistant-at-surgery services may be paid; 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.

14301 billing questions

How is 14301 different from the smaller adjacent tissue transfer codes?

Choose 14301 when the defect measures 30.1 to 60 square centimeters, regardless of anatomic area. Smaller defects are coded from the site-specific adjacent tissue transfer series.

When can I report 14302 with 14301?

Report 14302 for each additional 30 square centimeters or part thereof beyond the area covered by 14301. The record should support the total defect area used to select the codes.

Can I separately report lesion excision at the reconstructed site?

When lesion excision creates the same defect repaired with adjacent tissue transfer, the transfer code includes that work; do not separately report the lesion excision.

Should modifier 50 be appended for bilateral defects?

No. Modifier 50 is inappropriate for this code; report the service based on the applicable defect area.

What postoperative care is included in the Medicare global period?

The 90-day global period includes the day-before preoperative visit and 90 days of related postoperative care.

Can an assistant or another surgeon be reported?

Assistant-at-surgery services may be paid. 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.
