What 50329 covers

A transplant surgeon performs this work on the donor kidney outside the recipient’s body, before the graft is implanted. The service addresses reconstruction of the graft’s ureter; it is distinct from preparing the kidney’s surrounding tissues or reconstructing its artery or vein. It is generally part of the operative work surrounding a kidney transplant, rather than a procedure performed on the recipient’s native ureter.

Report 50329 when the operative record supports actual reconstruction of the donor graft’s ureter, not merely routine graft preparation. Documentation should identify the ureteral work performed and distinguish it from any preparation or reconstruction of other graft structures. When multiple procedures are performed in the same session, CMS pays the highest-valued procedure in full and applies a 50% reduction to the others.

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.
