What 24075 covers

This service removes a small soft-tissue mass located beneath the skin in the upper arm or elbow area. Typical examples include a subcutaneous lipoma or other discrete mass requiring excision rather than tissue sampling alone. Orthopedic, hand, or general surgeons may perform the procedure in an office, ambulatory surgery center, or hospital operating room. The code is for a subcutaneous mass, not a mass situated in deeper tissue planes or a skin-only lesion.

Report it when the operative documentation supports the arm or elbow site, subcutaneous depth, and lesion size under 3 cm, and describes removal rather than biopsy alone. The code has a 90-day global period: the day-before preoperative visit and 90 days of related postoperative care are included. For multiple procedures in the same session, the highest-valued procedure is paid in full and other procedures are subject to the standard 50% reduction. Bilateral reporting with modifier 50 is paid at 150%. Medicare does not pay an assistant at surgery for this service; 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.

24075 billing questions

How is this different from 24071?

Both describe excision of a subcutaneous arm or elbow mass. Use 24075 when the mass is under 3 cm; 24071 is for a mass measuring 3 cm or more.

When should 24076 be considered instead?

24076 describes excision of a deep arm or elbow soft-tissue tumor under 5 cm. Choose based on the documented tissue depth, not simply the skin incision or mass size.

Can this code be used for a biopsy?

No. It represents removal of the mass, not sampling for diagnosis. Soft-tissue biopsy codes 24065 and 24066 distinguish superficial from deep tissue sampling.

What postoperative care is included?

The 90-day global period includes the day-before preoperative visit and 90 days of related postoperative care, such as routine follow-up for the excision.

How is bilateral excision reported?

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.
