What 28114 covers

A foot and ankle surgeon or podiatric surgeon removes the metatarsal head at the end of the second, third, or fourth metatarsal. The procedure may be performed for a painful prominent head, pressure-related plantar keratosis or ulceration, or forefoot deformity such as rheumatoid metatarsalgia. It is generally performed in an operating-room setting; the operative note should identify the metatarsal head removed and describe complete excision rather than a limited bone shave or removal of the entire metatarsal.

Select this code for complete excision of a second, third, or fourth metatarsal head, and document the side, specific head, extent of bone removal, and clinical indication. The code is subject to a 90-day global period, including the day-before preoperative visit and related postoperative care during that period. 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% multiple-procedure reduction. For bilateral surgery, modifier 50 is paid at 150%. Assistant-at-surgery payment may be allowed; co-surgeon payment requires supporting documentation, and team surgery is 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.

28114 billing questions

Which metatarsal heads are covered by this code?

It applies to complete excision of a second, third, or fourth metatarsal head. The first and fifth metatarsal heads have distinct codes.

How does this differ from a partial metatarsal excision?

Use this code when the metatarsal head is completely excised. A limited removal or reshaping of part of the metatarsal is a different service.

What should the operative note identify?

Document the side, the specific metatarsal head removed, complete excision, and the condition prompting surgery, such as a painful pressure prominence or deformity.

How is bilateral surgery reported?

For bilateral procedures, modifier 50 is paid at 150%.

Are assistant or co-surgeon services payable?

Assistant-at-surgery payment may be made. Co-surgeon payment requires supporting documentation; team surgery is not permitted.

What postoperative care is included?

The 90-day global period includes the day-before preoperative visit and related postoperative care during the 90 days after surgery.

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.
