What 54057 covers

Code 54057 represents laser ablation of one or more lesions on the penis, such as external genital warts (condylomata). A urologist or dermatologist typically performs the treatment in an outpatient procedure setting, directing laser energy at lesion tissue to destroy it rather than removing it by excision. Selection is based on the penile site and laser method, not simply the number of lesions; use a method-specific sibling code when the documented treatment is chemical, electrosurgical, or cryosurgical.

The record should identify the penile lesion or lesions and document the laser treatment performed. This code has a 10-day global period, so related postoperative visits during that period are included. When another procedure subject to multiple-procedure pricing is performed in the same session, the highest-valued procedure is paid in full and other procedures are reduced to 50%. Modifier 50 is inappropriate for this descriptor and anatomy. Medicare does not pay an assistant at surgery for this service; 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.

54057 billing questions

How does 54057 differ from 54055?

54057 is for laser destruction of penile lesions. 54055 is the electrosurgical method, so the documented technique distinguishes the codes.

When should 54065 be considered instead?

54065 describes extensive destruction of penile lesions by any method. Consider it when the documented service is extensive rather than selecting a code solely for a particular destruction method.

Can modifier 50 be appended for lesions on both sides?

No. CMS identifies bilateral adjustment as inappropriate for this descriptor and anatomy.

Are related follow-up visits separately included during the global period?

Related postoperative visits within the 10-day global period are included in the procedure.

Can an assistant surgeon or co-surgeon be reported?

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.
