What 28495 covers

Code 28495 represents closed treatment of a fracture in a great-toe phalanx when the clinician manipulates the fracture to restore alignment. The provider may use manual reduction and then immobilize the toe, such as with taping, a rigid-soled shoe, or a splint. Typical cases include a displaced hallux phalanx fracture managed without an incision or percutaneous hardware. Orthopedic surgeons, podiatrists, and other clinicians qualified to manage fractures may perform this service in an office, emergency department, or facility setting.

Report the code for a great-toe phalanx fracture and document the fracture site and manipulation performed. CMS assigns a 90-day major-surgery global period, including the day-before preoperative visit and 90 days of related postoperative care. For multiple procedures in one session, the highest-valued procedure is paid in full and other procedures at 50%. Bilateral reporting with modifier 50 is paid at 150%. CMS does not pay an assistant at surgery for this code; 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.

28495 billing questions

How does 28495 differ from 28490?

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.
