What 24201 covers
This service covers surgical removal of a foreign object located deep in the upper arm or elbow area, rather than just beneath the skin. A surgeon exposes and dissects to the object, such as a retained fragment embedded in deeper tissue. It may be performed in an outpatient operating room or, when appropriate, another procedural setting. The operative report should identify the site, depth, and work required to locate and remove the object.
Report 24201 when the foreign body is deep in the specified anatomic area; use the subcutaneous-level code for an object confined to tissue just under the skin. Medicare assigns a 90-day global period, including the day-before preoperative visit and 90 days of related postoperative care. For multiple procedures in one session, the highest-valued procedure is paid in full and the others at 50%. For bilateral procedures reported with modifier 50, payment is 150%. Assistant-at-surgery services are not paid; co-surgeons and team surgery are not permitted.

24201 billing questions
How does 24201 differ from 24200?
24201 is for a foreign body deep in the upper arm or elbow area. Use 24200 when it is confined to the subcutaneous tissue.
What documentation supports reporting 24201?
Document the upper arm or elbow location, the object's depth, and the operative work used to expose and remove it. The record should make clear why the object was not merely subcutaneous.
How is a bilateral procedure reported?
Report modifier 50 for a bilateral procedure; CMS pays it at 150%.
Can an assistant surgeon or co-surgeon be reported?
CMS does not pay an assistant at surgery for this code, and co-surgeons are not permitted. Team surgery is also not permitted.
What postoperative care is included?
The 90-day global period includes the day-before preoperative visit and 90 days of related postoperative care.
How does the multiple-procedure reduction work?
When other procedures are performed in the same session, the highest-valued procedure is paid in full and the other procedures are 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.
