What 28200 covers
This service repairs a flexor tendon in the foot without using a free graft. A podiatrist or orthopedic foot and ankle surgeon may perform it for a tendon laceration or rupture requiring surgical repair. The operative report should identify the tendon and foot site, describe the injury and repair, and support that no free graft was used. The code is reported for each tendon repaired; it is not the code for extensor tendon repair or tendon release.
The service has a 90-day global period, including 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 the others are subject to the standard 50% multiple-procedure reduction. Modifier 50 is inappropriate for this code. Medicare does not pay an assistant at surgery; co-surgeons are paid only with 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.

28200 billing questions
How does this differ from 28202?
Both concern flexor tendon repair in the foot. Use 28200 when the repair does not use a free graft; 28202 is the graft-repair counterpart.
Can this code report an extensor tendon repair?
No. This code is for a flexor tendon. Use the corresponding extensor repair code when the repaired tendon is an extensor tendon.
How many units should be reported?
Report one unit for each flexor tendon repaired. The operative documentation should identify the tendon or tendons treated.
Does the code include postoperative visits?
Yes. The 90-day global period includes the day-before preoperative visit and 90 days of related postoperative care.
Can modifier 50 be used for bilateral repairs?
No. The descriptor or anatomy makes modifier 50 inappropriate for this code.
How are assistant and co-surgeon claims handled?
Medicare does not pay an assistant at surgery for this code. Co-surgeons are paid only when supporting documentation is provided; team surgery is not permitted.
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.
