What 55876 covers
This service places one or more small interstitial devices, such as fiducial markers or a dosimeter, in the prostate to help localize the gland during radiation treatment. A urologist or other qualified physician typically performs the needle-based procedure, often with imaging guidance, in an office or facility. The needle approach may vary; the purpose is radiation guidance rather than delivery of radioactive seeds or removal of prostate tissue.
Report one service for the marker-placement session; the code includes single or multiple devices. The record should identify the prostate as the target, the devices placed, and their radiation-guidance purpose. CMS assigns a 0-day global period, so same-day preoperative and postoperative care is included. When multiple procedures occur in the same 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 for this prostate service. Medicare does not pay an assistant at surgery; co-surgeon or team-surgery payment requires supporting documentation.

55876 billing questions
Is this code for fiducial markers or brachytherapy seeds?
Use it for needle placement of prostate markers or a dosimeter to guide radiation localization. Brachytherapy needle or catheter placement is a different service, reported with 55875.
Does one code cover multiple markers?
Yes. The service includes placement of a single device or multiple devices during the session; the number of markers does not create additional units.
Can prostate spacer placement be reported at the same session?
Marker placement and biodegradable material placement around the prostate are distinct services and may occur during the same preparation encounter. Document each service performed.
Should modifier 50 be appended?
No. CMS identifies bilateral adjustment as inappropriate for this prostate service.
How does the 0-day global period affect same-day care?
Same-day preoperative and postoperative care is included in the procedure's 0-day global period.
How are other procedures in the same session paid?
Under the standard multiple-procedure reduction, the highest-valued procedure is paid in full and the other procedures are subject to a 50% reduction. Medicare does not pay an assistant at surgery; co-surgeon or team-surgery payment requires supporting documentation.
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.
