What 25675 covers

This service treats a dislocation at the distal radioulnar joint, where the radius and ulna meet near the wrist. The physician manipulates the joint through the skin to restore alignment, without an incision or open repair. It is typically performed by a physician managing a traumatic wrist or forearm injury, often in an emergency department or procedural setting.

Report the code when the documented treatment includes manipulation of the dislocated distal radioulnar joint; closed treatment without manipulation is a different service. The record should identify the affected side, the dislocation, and the reduction performed. The service has a 90-day global period, including the day-before preoperative visit and 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 reporting with modifier 50 is paid at 150%. Assistant-at-surgery payment requires documented medical necessity; 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.

25675 billing questions

How does this differ from 25660?

Use 25675 when the physician manipulates the distal radioulnar dislocation to restore alignment. Code 25660 describes closed treatment of that dislocation without manipulation.

Can the reduction be reported with a fracture treatment code?

A distal radioulnar dislocation and a distal radius fracture are different conditions. Report a fracture treatment code only when the fracture is separately treated and the documentation supports that service.

How is bilateral treatment reported?

For treatment of both sides, modifier 50 applies; CMS pays the bilateral procedure at 150%.

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.
