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

What 43882 covers

Code 43882 describes open surgery to revise or remove electrodes used for gastric electrical stimulation, positioned at the stomach’s antrum. A surgeon performs the procedure when an existing gastric stimulator electrode requires operative correction or removal; the service concerns the electrodes, not the pulse generator. Gastric electrical stimulation is used for selected patients with severe, persistent gastroparesis, including diabetic gastroparesis. The procedure is typically performed in a hospital operating room.

For Medicare physician fee schedule purposes, status C means CMS publishes no national payment and the Medicare Administrative Contractor sets payment for each claim. The contractor also sets the global period. For multiple procedures performed in one session, the highest-valued procedure is paid in full and other procedures are reduced. A separate code describes revision or removal of the pulse generator or receiver when that component is treated.
