What 21080 covers

This service covers taking an impression and preparing a definitive obturator prosthesis for a patient with an acquired maxillary or palatal defect, often following maxillectomy. The custom appliance closes the opening between the oral and nasal cavities and can support speech and swallowing. A maxillofacial prosthodontist or dentist with maxillofacial prosthetic expertise typically performs the work in a dental prosthetics clinic or hospital outpatient setting. The definitive stage is generally selected after the surgical defect has healed or stabilized, rather than for an appliance used immediately after surgery or during interim healing.

Report this code for the definitive obturator service, not the surgical or interim obturator stage. Documentation should identify the defect and clinical stage and describe the impression and preparation performed. CMS assigns a 90-day major-surgery global period, including the day-before preoperative visit and related postoperative care through day 90. When multiple procedures occur in the same session, the highest-valued procedure is paid in full and others at 50%. Bilateral adjustment is inappropriate; assistant-at-surgery payment is restricted, and 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.

21080 billing questions

When should this code be chosen over 21079?

Use 21080 for the definitive obturator stage. Code 21079 describes an interim obturator used during the healing period.

How does 21080 differ from 21076?

21080 is for a definitive obturator; 21076 is for a surgical obturator used in the surgical stage.

What documentation supports reporting 21080?

Document the acquired maxillary or palatal defect, its clinical stage, and the impression and preparation work for the definitive appliance.

Can modifier 50 be used for bilateral obturator work?

No. CMS identifies bilateral adjustment as inappropriate for this code.

How does the global period affect related care?

The 90-day major-surgery global includes the day-before preoperative visit and related postoperative care through day 90.

What happens when another procedure is performed in the same session?

Under the standard multiple procedure reduction, the highest-valued procedure is paid in full and the other procedure is paid at 50%.

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.
