What 54220 covers
This service involves irrigating the corpora cavernosa to treat priapism, usually a prolonged erection requiring urgent management. A urologist or other qualified physician may perform it in an emergency department, hospital, or office setting. The procedure may be part of a treatment sequence that also includes corporal aspiration or a separately performed intracavernosal medication injection.
Report 54220 when the documented service is corporal irrigation for priapism; distinguish it from pharmacologic injection alone or surgical drainage. The record should identify the priapism indication and describe the irrigation performed. CMS assigns a 0-day global period, so same-day preoperative and postoperative care is included. When multiple procedures occur in one session, the highest-valued procedure is paid in full and other procedures are subject to the standard 50% multiple-procedure reduction. Modifier 50 is inappropriate. Assistant-at-surgery payment is restricted, and 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.

54220 billing questions
How is 54220 different from 54235?
54220 represents irrigation of the corpora cavernosa for priapism. 54235 represents injection of a pharmacologic agent into the corpora cavernosa; report it only when that injection is a distinct service.
Is irrigation included in surgical drainage under 54420?
54420 describes surgical drainage of the corpus cavernosum for priapism, with or without irrigation. Choose the code that reflects the procedure actually performed; do not separately characterize irrigation that is part of the surgical drainage service.
Does 54220 have a postoperative global period?
It has a 0-day global period. Same-day preoperative and postoperative care is included.
Can modifier 50 be reported?
No. CMS identifies bilateral adjustment as inappropriate for this code.
How are other procedures in the same session paid?
CMS applies the standard multiple-procedure reduction: the highest-valued procedure is paid in full, and other procedures are paid at 50%.
Can an assistant or co-surgeon be reported?
Assistant-at-surgery payment is restricted for this code. Co-surgeons and team surgery are not permitted.
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.
