What 54440 covers
This code describes an operation to repair the penis itself, rather than to place or repair a penile prosthesis. Urologists may report it for surgical treatment of a penile fracture, in which trauma tears erectile tissue. The operation is typically performed in an operating room and repairs the injured penile tissue.
Medicare assigns physician fee schedule status C, or carrier priced: CMS publishes no national payment, and the Medicare Administrative Contractor sets payment for each claim. The 90-day global period includes the day-before preoperative visit and related postoperative care during the 90 days after surgery. The standard multiple-procedure reduction applies when other procedures are performed in the same session. Modifier 50 is inappropriate. Assistant-at-surgery services may be paid; co-surgeon payment requires supporting documentation, and team surgery is 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.
