What 54328 covers

This code represents complex reconstructive surgery involving penile and urethral anatomy, rather than a repair limited to one structure. A urologist typically performs the operation in a hospital or other surgical setting. The operative report should make clear the condition being corrected, the structures addressed, and the reconstructive steps performed. Hypospadias-related reconstruction may be part of this clinical context, but the code should be selected based on the actual procedure and its documented scope.

The code has a 90-day global period: the day-before preoperative visit and 90 days of related postoperative care are included. 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 multiple-procedure reduction. Modifier 50 is inappropriate for this code. An assistant at surgery may be paid; co-surgeons require supporting documentation, and team surgery is not permitted. The operative note should distinguish this combined penile and urethral reconstruction from a procedure addressing only the urethra, a specific hypospadias repair, or a limited penile revision.

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.

54328 billing questions

What documentation supports reporting this code?

Document the condition treated, the penile and urethral structures involved, and the reconstructive work performed. The operative report should establish why the procedure is more than an isolated urethral reconstruction or limited penile repair.

Can modifier 50 be used?

No. CMS identifies bilateral adjustment as inappropriate for this code.

How is another procedure in the same session handled?

Under the standard multiple-procedure rule, the highest-valued procedure is paid in full and other procedures are subject to a 50% reduction. The operative documentation should support each separately reported procedure.

Can an assistant or co-surgeon be reported?

An assistant at surgery may be paid. Co-surgeons are paid only when supporting documentation is provided; team surgery is not permitted.

What care is included in the global period?

The 90-day global period includes the day-before preoperative visit and 90 days of related postoperative care.

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.
