Medicare allowed amount for participating (non-QP) physicians, before deductible, coinsurance and claim adjustments. Not a patient’s bill or a hospital charge.

What 27899 covers

CPT 27899 identifies an unlisted procedure involving the leg or ankle, used when no listed CPT code adequately describes the work. The clinician reporting the operation selects it after comparing the procedure with codes for the specific anatomic site and service. The operative documentation should identify the work performed and the anatomic site so the contractor can assess the unlisted service; use a listed code when it accurately describes the procedure.

Medicare assigns physician fee schedule status C (carrier priced): CMS publishes no national payment, and the Medicare Administrative Contractor sets payment for each claim. The contractor also sets the global period. When multiple procedures are performed in the same session, the highest-valued procedure is paid in full and the others are subject to the standard multiple-procedure reduction. For bilateral procedures, modifier 50 applies under Medicare’s bilateral pricing rule.

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.
