What 24650 covers

This service covers closed treatment of a fracture at the radial head or neck near the elbow when the clinician accepts the bone’s position without manipulation. An orthopedist or other treating clinician may provide this care in an office or facility setting, often using a sling or other support and arranging follow-up. A stable radial head fracture is a typical example. The distinction is whether the clinician takes responsibility for definitive fracture treatment, rather than providing temporary support before referral.

Report one service for the treated fracture and document the fracture location, the decision not to manipulate it, and the treatment plan. Medicare assigns a 90-day global period that includes 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 the others at 50%. Bilateral treatment reported with 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.

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.

24650 billing questions

When should 24655 be reported instead?

Use 24655 when closed treatment of the radial head or neck fracture requires manipulation to reposition the bone. Use 24650 when the clinician treats the fracture in its existing position.

Does a sling provided before referral support reporting 24650?

A temporary sling alone does not establish definitive fracture care. The record should show that the reporting clinician assumed responsibility for treating the radial head or neck fracture.

Are follow-up visits for the fracture separately reported?

Medicare includes 90 days of related postoperative care in this code’s global period, along with the day-before preoperative visit.

How is treatment of fractures on both sides reported?

Report bilateral treatment with modifier 50 when the requirements for bilateral reporting are met. Medicare pays this code at 150% when reported bilaterally.

What happens if another procedure is performed in the same session?

The standard multiple procedure reduction applies: Medicare pays the highest-valued procedure in full and other procedures at 50%.

Can an assistant, co-surgeon, or surgical team be reported for 24650?

Medicare does not pay an assistant at surgery for this code. Co-surgeons and team surgery are not permitted.

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.
