What 17313 covers
A Mohs surgeon removes a skin cancer in mapped tissue layers, processes and examines the tissue microscopically, and uses the findings to guide further removal while preserving uninvolved tissue. This code represents the first stage for a lesion on the trunk, an arm, or a leg. It is commonly used for cutaneous basal cell or squamous cell carcinomas treated in a dermatology office or hospital outpatient setting.
Report one first-stage service for the treated site, with the number of tissue blocks documented; the first stage includes up to five blocks. Record the anatomic site, mapping, blocks examined, and histologic findings. Additional stages are reported with 17314, and additional blocks beyond the included amount with 17315. Same-day preoperative and postoperative care is included in the 0-day global period. When other procedures are performed in the same session, the highest-valued procedure is paid in full and the others are subject to the standard multiple-procedure reduction. Modifier 50 is inappropriate. Medicare does not pay an assistant at surgery; co-surgeons and team surgery are not permitted.

17313 billing questions
How is 17313 distinguished from 17311?
Choose 17313 for the first Mohs stage on the trunk, arms, or legs. Code 17311 is for the first stage at specified sites including the head, neck, hands, feet, or genitalia.
How many tissue blocks are included?
The first stage includes up to five tissue blocks. Report additional blocks with 17315, and document the block count.
How are later Mohs stages reported?
For a lesion on the trunk, arm, or leg, report additional stages with 17314. Document each stage and its tissue findings.
Can modifier 50 be used for bilateral lesions?
No. Modifier 50 is inappropriate for this service; the CMS bilateral adjustment does not apply.
Can an assistant or co-surgeon be reported?
Medicare does not pay an assistant at surgery for this service. Co-surgeons and team surgery are not permitted.
What same-day care is included?
The 0-day global period includes the related preoperative and postoperative care provided on the procedure date.
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.
