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

What 48105 covers

This code is for operative removal of damaged or devitalized pancreatic tissue during treatment of pancreatic trauma, such as injury from blunt force or a penetrating wound. A trauma or general surgeon typically performs the procedure in a hospital operating room as part of the patient's acute injury care. The operative report should establish the traumatic cause and describe the pancreatic injury and tissue removed.

Choose this code for trauma-directed resection or debridement, rather than diagnostic sampling or excision of a nontraumatic focal lesion. Medicare assigns a 90-day global period, including the day-before preoperative visit and related postoperative care during that period. 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 inappropriate for this anatomy. Assistant-at-surgery services may be paid; co-surgeon payment requires supporting documentation, and team surgery is not permitted.
