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

What 41130 covers

This code describes a hemiglossectomy: surgical removal of one side of the tongue. Head and neck surgeons, including otolaryngologists and oral and maxillofacial surgeons, typically perform it in an operating room for conditions such as a tongue malignancy that requires resection beyond a small, localized lesion. The operative report should make the extent and site of tongue removal clear.

Choose this code for a hemiglossectomy, not a limited excision or a more extensive complete or total tongue removal. Document the reason for surgery, the portion removed, and any additional procedures performed. CMS assigns a 90-day global period, including the day-before preoperative visit and 90 days of related postoperative care. When multiple procedures are performed in the same session, the highest-valued procedure is paid in full and other procedures are subject to the standard 50% reduction. Modifier 50 is inappropriate. An assistant at surgery may be paid; co-surgeons require supporting documentation, and team surgery is not permitted.
