What 24362 covers

An orthopedic surgeon performs this open elbow joint reconstruction when the radial head is replaced with a prosthetic component. A common setting is surgery for a severely damaged radial head, such as an unreconstructible fracture. The service concerns radial head replacement within an elbow arthroplasty, not an isolated tendon repair or ligament reconstruction.

Select the code when the operative report supports elbow arthroplasty that includes radial head replacement; document the indication and the structures reconstructed or replaced. CMS assigns 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 other procedures are subject to the standard 50% reduction. For bilateral reporting with modifier 50, CMS pays at 150%. An assistant at surgery may be paid; co-surgeons and team surgery are not permitted.
