What 14302 covers

This add-on represents further movement of nearby skin to close a defect after the initial area covered by the primary adjacent tissue transfer code. Surgeons use local advancement, rotation, or transposition techniques, including designs such as Z-plasty or V-Y advancement, when direct closure would distort nearby structures or leave excessive tension. The work is commonly performed by plastic, dermatologic, or other surgeons treating defects after tumor removal or other skin excision.

Report 14302 with 14301 when the total area of adjacent tissue transfer exceeds the primary code’s 60-square-centimeter upper threshold. Each unit represents another 30 square centimeters, or part of that increment, beyond the area covered by 14301. The operative note should support the defect and rearrangement area, flap design, and additional tissue movement. This add-on must be billed with its primary procedure, and its 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.

14302 billing questions

When is 14302 reported with 14301?

Use 14302 when the adjacent tissue transfer area exceeds the first 60 square centimeters represented by 14301. Report it with 14301, not by itself.

How many units of 14302 should be reported?

Report one unit for each additional 30 square centimeters, or part of an additional 30, beyond the area covered by 14301.

Can 14302 be used for a defect of 60 square centimeters or less?

No. 14301 covers the primary area through 60 square centimeters; 14302 represents additional area beyond that threshold.

What operative documentation supports 14302?

Document the defect and rearrangement area, the local flap design, and the additional tissue movement that extends beyond the primary area.

Can the lesion excision at the transfer site be reported separately?

Excision of the lesion at the same site is generally included in adjacent tissue transfer coding; 14302 represents additional transfer area, not a separate excision.

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.
