Medicare allowed amount for participating (non-QP) physicians, before deductible, coinsurance and claim adjustments. Not a patient’s bill or a hospital charge.

What 59136 covers

Code 59136 represents operative treatment of an ectopic pregnancy implanted in the interstitial portion of the fallopian tube, where it traverses the uterine wall. An obstetrician-gynecologist typically performs the procedure in an operating room; treatment may involve removing the ectopic tissue and repairing the uterine wall. The operative report should establish the interstitial uterine site rather than a tubal or ovarian, cervical, or abdominal implantation.

Select this code by implantation site and the procedure performed, not simply because an ectopic pregnancy is present; other sites and laparoscopic treatment have distinct codes. Document operative findings and the treatment completed. CMS assigns a 90-day major-surgery global period, including the day-before preoperative visit and related postoperative care through day 90. When multiple procedures occur 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. An assistant at surgery may be paid; co-surgeons and team surgery are not permitted.
