What 25624 covers

An orthopedic or hand surgeon treats a scaphoid fracture through the skin, using external maneuvers to realign the broken carpal bone. This service is typically used when fracture alignment requires manipulation and the clinician can treat the injury without surgically exposing the fracture or placing internal fixation. Immobilization in a cast or splint commonly follows the reduction.

Choose this code when the record identifies a scaphoid fracture and supports manipulation as part of the closed treatment; simple immobilization without manipulation points to a different code. The 90-day global period includes the day-before preoperative visit and related postoperative care during the 90 days after surgery. When multiple procedures occur in one session, the highest-valued procedure is paid in full and other procedures are subject to the standard 50% multiple-procedure reduction. Bilateral reporting with modifier 50 is paid at 150%. An assistant is paid only when medical necessity is documented; co-surgeons and team surgery are not permitted.

25624 billing questions

When should I choose 25624 instead of 25622?

Use 25624 when the clinician manipulates the scaphoid fracture during closed treatment. Code 25622 describes closed scaphoid fracture treatment without manipulation.

How does 25624 differ from 25628?

25624 is closed treatment with manipulation. Use 25628 when the scaphoid fracture is treated openly with internal fixation.

What documentation supports 25624?

Document the scaphoid fracture, the closed reduction or manipulation performed, and the treatment plan, including immobilization when used. The record should distinguish manipulation from immobilization alone.

Are routine follow-up visits included?

The 90-day global period includes the day-before preoperative visit and related postoperative care during the 90 days after surgery.

How is bilateral treatment reported?

Assistant-at-surgery payment requires documentation of medical necessity. Co-surgeons and team surgery are not permitted for this code.

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.
