What 46614 covers

This procedure combines examination through an anoscope with treatment to stop bleeding. It may be performed by a colorectal or general surgeon, or another clinician experienced in anorectal procedures, in an office or facility setting. The service is appropriate when bleeding requires active control during the anoscopic procedure, rather than inspection alone or tissue sampling alone.

Report the code when the record identifies the bleeding site and documents the hemostatic work performed. The 0-day global period includes same-day preoperative and postoperative care. When related endoscopies are performed in the same session, CMS endoscopy-family pricing applies. Modifier 50 is inappropriate for this service. An assistant at surgery is not paid under the statutory restriction; co-surgeons and team surgery are not permitted.

This summary was written with AI assistance from CMS physician fee schedule data and checked against the CMS billing rules shown here. Rates on this page come directly from CMS files.

46614 billing questions

When should this be reported instead of diagnostic anoscopy?

Use this code when the anoscopic service includes active treatment to control bleeding. Diagnostic inspection without hemostasis is represented by 46600.

Can diagnostic anoscopy be billed separately with bleeding control?

The anoscopy is part of the bleeding-control service. Document the findings and hemostatic work rather than separately reporting a diagnostic examination for the same procedure.

How should related endoscopies performed in the same session be priced?

CMS endoscopy-family pricing applies when related endoscopies are performed together. The record should identify each service performed during the session.

Should modifier 50 be appended?

No. The descriptor and anatomy make bilateral reporting with modifier 50 inappropriate.

Can an assistant or co-surgeon be billed?

An assistant at surgery is not paid under the statutory restriction. Co-surgeons and team surgery are not permitted for this service.

What documentation supports reporting this code?

Document the bleeding source or location, the anoscopic findings, and the method or work used to achieve hemostasis.

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.
