What 59510 covers
This code represents routine obstetric care spanning prenatal visits, cesarean delivery, and postpartum care. An obstetrician-gynecologist or family physician providing obstetric services may report it when the physician or practice manages the pregnancy and performs the cesarean in a hospital, with prenatal and postpartum care furnished in office or other appropriate settings. It is not the choice when the reported service is limited to the delivery or to delivery plus postpartum care.
Report the package when documentation supports the antepartum, cesarean, and postpartum portions of care. If the services are divided among physicians or practices, select the applicable delivery-only or other component code rather than reporting the complete package. This maternity code follows the maternity-specific payment approach; the usual global surgery rules do not apply. When multiple procedures are performed in the same session, CMS pays the highest-valued procedure in full and the others at 50%.
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.

59510 billing questions
When should 59510 be chosen over 59514?
Use 59510 when the practice provides routine antepartum care, performs the cesarean, and provides postpartum care. Use 59514 when reporting the cesarean delivery only.
Does 59510 include prenatal and postpartum care?
Yes. The package includes routine antepartum care, the cesarean delivery, and postpartum care; those services are not separately reported as parts of the same maternity package.
How does 59515 differ from 59510?
59515 covers cesarean delivery with postpartum care, but not the antepartum portion. Choose 59510 when the same physician or practice also furnished routine prenatal care.
What documentation supports reporting 59510?
The record should support the practice’s routine antepartum management, the cesarean delivery, and postpartum care. If one or more portions were furnished by another practice, use the applicable component-specific coding.
How are other procedures handled when performed with the cesarean?
For multiple procedures performed in the same session, CMS pays the highest-valued procedure in full and the other procedure or procedures at 50%. A hysterectomy after cesarean delivery may be reported with its separate add-on code when performed.
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.
