What 24670 covers

Code 24670 represents closed management of a proximal ulna fracture without manipulating bone fragments to restore alignment. Care commonly includes immobilization in a cast or splint and planned fracture follow-up. A stable, nondisplaced fracture of the proximal ulna, including an olecranon-region fracture, may fit when treated without manipulation. The orthopedic surgeon or other practitioner who assumes definitive fracture care reports the service; an emergency evaluation or temporary splint alone is not the full fracture treatment.

Documentation should identify the proximal ulna fracture, support treatment without manipulation, and describe the immobilization and care plan. CMS 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 others at 50%. Bilateral reporting with modifier 50 is paid at 150%. A statutory restriction bars assistant-at-surgery payment; co-surgeons and team surgery are not permitted.
