What 28112 covers

The surgeon removes the head of the second metatarsal to address a localized bone prominence, deformity, or other condition for which resection is clinically indicated. Podiatric and orthopedic surgeons typically perform this operation in an operating room or ambulatory surgery setting. The operative report should identify the second metatarsal, the side, the reason for surgery, and the bone removed.

Select this code when the documented resection is of the second metatarsal head; distinguish it from procedures involving another metatarsal or a different extent of bone removal. The 90-day global period includes the day-before preoperative visit and 90 days of related postoperative care. When multiple procedures are performed in the same session, the highest-valued procedure is paid in full and other procedures are subject to the standard 50% reduction. Bilateral reporting with modifier 50 is paid at 150%. Assistant-at-surgery payment is restricted by statute; co-surgeons are paid only with supporting documentation, and team surgery is not permitted.
