What 27703 covers
An orthopedic surgeon, often a foot and ankle specialist, reports this service when surgically revising an existing ankle joint replacement. The operation may address a failed or loose prosthesis and can involve removing and reconstructing around the existing implant. It is typically performed in an operating room, with the operative report identifying the prior replacement and the revision work performed.
Choose this code for revision of an existing ankle replacement, not the initial placement of a total ankle implant. Documentation should describe the implant, the reason for revision, and the components or joint structures addressed. The day-before preoperative visit and 90 days of related postoperative care are included in the 90-day global period. When multiple procedures occur in the same session, the highest-valued procedure is paid in full and other procedures are paid at 50%. For bilateral services, modifier 50 is paid at 150%. Assistant-at-surgery payment may be made; co-surgeons and team surgery are not permitted.

27703 billing questions
When should I report this instead of 27702?
Report 27703 for revision of an existing ankle replacement. Code 27702 describes the initial total ankle replacement.
Is removal of the existing implant separately reported?
Removal performed as part of the revision reconstruction is included in this service. Code 27704 is for implant removal when removal is the service performed rather than revision reconstruction.
What documentation supports the revision?
The operative report should identify the prior ankle replacement, the reason for revision, and the work performed on the implant and joint.
How does the 90-day global period affect postoperative billing?
The day-before preoperative visit and 90 days of related postoperative care are included in the global period.
Can an assistant surgeon be reported?
CMS allows assistant-at-surgery payment for this code. Co-surgeons and team surgery are not permitted.
How is bilateral revision handled?
When the procedure is performed bilaterally, report modifier 50; 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.
