What 24065 covers
Code 24065 represents sampling of superficial soft tissue in the upper arm or elbow region to establish a diagnosis, rather than removing the entire lesion as definitive treatment. The surgeon obtains tissue from a mass or other abnormality in the superficial soft-tissue layer; orthopedic and other surgeons may perform the biopsy in an office procedure room or operating room. The specimen is submitted for pathologic examination. The superficial-versus-deep distinction is based on the tissue plane involved, not simply the lesion’s diameter.
Report this code when the operative note identifies the upper-arm or elbow site, superficial depth, sampling method, and reason tissue was obtained. Related postoperative visits during the 10-day global period are included. When multiple procedures occur in the same session, the highest-valued procedure is paid in full and the others at 50%. For bilateral biopsies, modifier 50 is paid at 150%. Medicare does not pay an assistant at surgery for this code; co-surgeons and team surgery are not permitted.

24065 billing questions
How does 24065 differ from 24066?
Use 24065 for biopsy of superficial soft tissue in the upper arm or elbow region. Code 24066 is for biopsy of deep soft tissue.
Can 24065 be reported when the entire lesion is removed?
This code describes biopsy sampling. When the surgeon removes a lesion, evaluate the applicable excision code based on the site, tissue depth, and lesion size.
What documentation supports the superficial biopsy code?
Document the upper-arm or elbow location, the tissue plane or depth, the sampling performed, and the clinical reason for obtaining tissue.
How are bilateral biopsies reported?
Modifier 50 identifies a bilateral procedure; CMS pays the bilateral procedure at 150%.
Are postoperative visits separately paid during the global period?
Related postoperative visits for 10 days are included in the minor-procedure global period.
How does Medicare handle an assistant or additional procedures in the same session?
An assistant at surgery is not paid for this code. If multiple procedures are performed in the same session, the highest-valued procedure is paid in full and the others 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.
