What 28405 covers

This service covers closed treatment of a fracture of the calcaneus, the heel bone, when the clinician manipulates the fracture to improve alignment without an open surgical approach. Orthopedic surgeons and foot-and-ankle specialists commonly provide this care after a heel injury, using imaging and examination to assess alignment and guide treatment. The fracture may then be supported with external immobilization as part of the treatment plan.

Select this code when the documented treatment includes manipulation; treatment without manipulation is represented by 28400. The record should identify the calcaneal fracture, the reduction or manipulation performed, and the treatment plan. Medicare assigns a 90-day global period, including 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 reduced to 50%. For bilateral treatment, modifier 50 is paid at 150%. Assistant-at-surgery payment requires documented medical necessity; 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.

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.
