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

What 44625 covers

This operation reverses an enterostomy by removing the bowel segment at the stoma and reconnecting the remaining intestine. A typical example is an ileostomy takedown in which the surgeon resects the stoma-bearing segment and joins two small-bowel ends. A surgeon performs the procedure in an operating room, usually in a hospital setting. The resulting connection may involve small bowel or colon, but it is not a connection between colon and rectum.

Select this code when the operative report documents both bowel resection and a noncolorectal anastomosis as part of the stoma closure. The resection and reconnection are included in this service. Medicare assigns a 90-day global period, including the day-before preoperative visit and related postoperative care. When separately reportable procedures occur in the same session, Medicare pays the highest-valued procedure in full and others at 50%. Do not use modifier 50. An assistant surgeon may be paid; co-surgeons require supporting documentation, and CMS does not permit team-surgery billing.
