What 45562 covers

A surgeon uses an abdominal approach to inspect the rectum and repair an injury that requires operative treatment. This may arise after trauma or as a complication of another procedure. General and colorectal surgeons typically perform the service in an operating room, usually in a facility setting. The operative work centers on identifying the injury and repairing it, rather than treating rectal prolapse or a rectocele.

Documentation should identify the injury, its location and extent, the abdominal approach, and the repair performed. The related 90-day global period includes the day-before preoperative visit and 90 days of related postoperative care. 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 not appropriate for this service. An assistant at surgery may be paid; co-surgeon payment requires supporting documentation, and team surgery is not permitted.
