What 28475 covers

This service covers closed management of a fractured metatarsal that requires manipulation to improve alignment. The clinician performs the reduction without an open incision or percutaneous skeletal fixation, then typically immobilizes the foot. Orthopedic surgeons and podiatrists may provide this treatment in an office, emergency department, or hospital setting.

Report one unit for each metatarsal treated with manipulation. Documentation should identify the fractured bone and support the need for manipulation, including the reduction performed and resulting alignment. The 90-day global period includes the day-before preoperative visit and related postoperative care. When multiple procedures are performed in one session, the highest-valued procedure is paid in full and other procedures are subject to the standard 50% reduction. Modifier 50 is inappropriate. Medicare does not pay an assistant at surgery for this service; 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.

28475 billing questions

How does this differ from 28470?

Use 28475 when the clinician manipulates the metatarsal fracture to improve alignment. Code 28470 describes closed treatment without manipulation.

When is 28476 more appropriate?

Use 28476 when percutaneous skeletal fixation is performed with manipulation. Code 28475 describes closed reduction without that fixation.

How many units should be reported?

Report one unit for each metatarsal treated with manipulation. Document the specific metatarsal or metatarsals addressed.

Should modifier 50 be used for fractures in both feet?

No. CMS identifies bilateral adjustment as inappropriate for this code. Report the service for each treated metatarsal rather than using modifier 50.

What postoperative care is included?

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

Can an assistant or co-surgeon be reported?

Medicare does not pay an assistant at surgery for this service. Co-surgeons and team surgery are 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.
