Check a contract rate as a % of Medicare · 41599 nationwide

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

What 41599 covers

Code 41599 identifies an operation on the tongue or floor of the mouth when no listed CPT procedure code describes the work. It is not a substitute for a defined procedure code that matches the operation. Nearby listed procedures address tongue-to-lip surgery, tongue suspension, reconstruction of a tongue fold, and tongue-base volume reduction; select one of those when it accurately represents the procedure. For an unlisted operation, the claim should be supported by a clear account of the anatomy treated and work performed so the service can be evaluated.

Medicare assigns physician fee schedule status C: CMS publishes no national payment, and the Medicare Administrative Contractor sets payment claim by claim. The Medicare contractor also sets the global period. When multiple procedures are performed in the same session, the standard multiple procedure reduction applies: the highest-valued procedure is paid in full, and other procedures are reduced.

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.
