What 43762 covers
This service covers replacing a gastrostomy tube through an established tract without revising that tract and without imaging or endoscopic guidance. It may be performed when a tube is damaged, clogged, or dislodged and needs exchange. Physicians and other qualified practitioners may perform the replacement in settings such as an office, hospital, or skilled nursing facility. Removal of the existing tube, when performed as part of the exchange, is included.
Report the code when documentation supports replacement through the existing tract and confirms that tract revision and imaging or endoscopic guidance were not required. A replacement requiring tract revision is distinguished from this service; fluoroscopic replacement is represented by a different code. The service has a 0-day global period, so same-day preoperative and postoperative care is included. 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. Medicare does not pay an assistant at surgery, and co-surgeons and team surgery are not permitted.

43762 billing questions
How does this differ from repositioning a gastrostomy tube?
Use 43762 when the tube is replaced through the established tract. Code 43761 describes repositioning the existing tube rather than exchanging it.
Is removal of the old tube separately reported?
No. Removal is included when performed as part of the replacement.
Can 43762 be used when the tract needs revision?
No. A replacement that requires revision of the gastrostomy tract is reported with 43763.
What if fluoroscopic guidance is used?
43762 describes replacement without imaging or endoscopic guidance. Fluoroscopic replacement is represented by 49450.
Can modifier 50 or an assistant-at-surgery modifier be used?
Modifier 50 is inappropriate for this code. Medicare does not pay an assistant at surgery for this service.
What happens when another procedure is performed in the same session?
Under the standard multiple procedure reduction, the highest-valued procedure is paid in full and other procedures are paid at 50%.
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.
