What 29325 covers

This service covers applying a hip spica cast that extends over the pelvis and trunk, one full leg, and part of the opposite leg. Orthopedic surgeons and other qualified clinicians use this extent of immobilization when treatment must control the hip and pelvis as well as the injured lower extremity. A common clinical setting is immobilization of a child's femoral fracture when a spica cast is selected.

Choose this code based on the cast's extent, rather than the diagnosis alone; a cast involving only one leg is reported with 29305. The record should identify the treated condition, the need for immobilization, and the cast's actual extent. The procedure has a 0-day global period, so same-day preoperative and postoperative care is included. When multiple procedures occur in one session, the highest-valued is paid in full and the others at 50%. Modifier 50 is inappropriate. 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.

29325 billing questions

How does 29325 differ from 29305?

29325 describes a one-and-one-half spica, extending over one full leg and part of the other. Use 29305 when the spica involves one leg.

Can 29305 and 29325 be reported for the same cast application?

No. They distinguish the extent of the hip spica application; select the code matching the cast that was actually applied.

Does modifier 50 apply when both legs are involved?

No. Modifier 50 is inappropriate for 29325; the one-and-one-half spica extent is represented by this code.

How does the 0-day global period affect same-day care?

Same-day preoperative and postoperative care is included in the procedure's 0-day global period.

Can an assistant or co-surgeon be reported?

Assistant-at-surgery payment requires documentation of medical necessity. 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.
