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

What 44130 covers

A surgeon creates a connection between two portions of intestine, sometimes removing part of the bowel or routing contents around a diseased or obstructed segment. The operation is performed through an abdominal approach and may be used for small-bowel reconstruction or bypass. General and colorectal surgeons typically perform it in an operating room, often during inpatient surgery.

Choose the code when the operative report documents the bowel-to-bowel anastomosis and whether partial resection or bypass was performed. Distinguish it from a resection code that already describes removal of a small-bowel segment with anastomosis. Medicare includes the day-before preoperative visit and 90 days of related postoperative care in the global period. For multiple procedures in one session, the highest-valued procedure is paid in full and other procedures are reduced to 50%. An assistant at surgery may be paid; co-surgeon payment requires supporting documentation, and team surgery is not permitted. Modifier 50 is inappropriate for this single bowel-to-bowel reconstruction.
