What 22862 covers

This service addresses a previously implanted total artificial disc in a single lumbar interspace through an anterior approach, with revision or replacement work on the prosthesis. Spine surgeons, including orthopedic spine surgeons and neurosurgeons, commonly perform it in an operating room. The operative work may include exposing the disc space, correcting the implant problem, and placing a replacement prosthesis.

Report one unit for the treated interspace and document the prior implant, level, reason for revision, and work performed, including whether a replacement was placed. Medicare pays only in specific circumstances, so the record must support the applicable coverage circumstances. The service has a 90-day global period, including 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 receive the standard 50% reduction. Modifier 50 is inappropriate for this descriptor and anatomy. An assistant at surgery may be paid; co-surgeons and team surgery are 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.

22862 billing questions

How does this differ from the initial lumbar disc replacement code?

Use this code when an existing lumbar artificial disc is revised or replaced. Code 22857 describes initial lumbar disc arthroplasty rather than revision of a prior prosthesis.

Can removal of the old disc be reported separately?

Do not separately report 22865 for removal of the same prosthesis when 22862 revision or replacement is performed. Code 22865 describes removal of a lumbar artificial disc without replacement.

How many units should be reported?

Report one unit for a single treated lumbar interspace. Document the level and the revision or replacement performed.

What documentation supports Medicare payment?

Document the prior lumbar disc implant, treated interspace, reason for operative revision, and work performed. Medicare payment is restricted to specific circumstances, so the record should support the applicable coverage circumstances.

May an assistant or co-surgeon be reported?

CMS indicates that an assistant at surgery may be paid and that co-surgeons and team surgery are permitted. The operative record should identify each surgeon's role and work.

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.
