Medicare allowed amount for participating (non-QP) physicians, before deductible, coinsurance and claim adjustments. Not a patient’s bill or a hospital charge.

What 41017 covers

This procedure drains an abscess, cyst, or hematoma in the floor of the mouth through an incision made from inside the oral cavity. The target is the tissue beneath the tongue, rather than a lesion in the tongue itself or the cheek-side vestibule. Oral and maxillofacial surgeons and otolaryngologists may perform it, commonly in a surgical setting; the operative note should identify the floor-of-mouth location and describe the intraoral approach and drainage performed.

Select this code based on both the lesion’s anatomic site and the route used. The record should support that the treated lesion was in the floor of the mouth and accessed intraorally. Medicare treats the service as major surgery with a 90-day global period, including the day-before preoperative visit and 90 days of related postoperative care. When other procedures are performed in the same session, the highest-valued procedure is paid in full and the others at 50%. Modifier 50 is inappropriate for this code. An assistant at surgery is paid only when medical necessity is documented; co-surgeons and team surgery are not permitted.
