What 27810 covers

An orthopedic surgeon or other qualified clinician uses manipulation to reduce a fracture involving both ankle malleoli without surgically opening the fracture site. The service may be performed in an emergency department, hospital, or office setting, with immobilization after reduction. Documentation should identify the bimalleolar fracture and establish that manipulation was performed as part of its treatment, rather than simply immobilizing the ankle without reduction.

Select this code for the fracture pattern and treatment performed; a bimalleolar fracture treated without manipulation has a different code, as does open treatment. The 90-day global period includes the day-before preoperative visit and 90 days of related postoperative care. When multiple procedures occur in the same session, the highest-valued procedure is paid in full and other procedures are subject to the standard 50% reduction. Modifier 50 is paid at 150% for bilateral procedures. Medicare does not pay an assistant at surgery for this service; 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.

27810 billing questions

When is this code used instead of 27808?

How does this differ from open bimalleolar fracture treatment?

This code is for closed reduction, without surgically opening the fracture site. Open treatment of a bimalleolar fracture is reported with 27814.

Does the global period include related follow-up care?

Yes. The 90-day global period includes the day-before preoperative visit and 90 days of related postoperative care.

How are other procedures in the same session paid?

The highest-valued procedure is paid in full, and other procedures are subject to the standard multiple procedure reduction, with payment at 50%.

Can an assistant or co-surgeon be reported?

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

How is bilateral treatment handled?

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.
