What 59514 covers

An obstetrician or other qualified surgeon delivers the infant and placenta through abdominal and uterine incisions, typically in a hospital operating room. Code 59514 represents the cesarean delivery service alone, rather than a maternity package that also includes prenatal or postpartum care. It is appropriate when the reporting clinician provides the delivery service but does not include those other phases of care in the billed service.

Choose the code based on which phases of maternity care the service includes: 59514 is delivery only, 59515 includes delivery and postpartum care, and 59510 includes antepartum, delivery, and postpartum care. Documentation should support the cesarean delivery and clarify the care included in the clinician’s service. The usual global surgery rules do not apply to this maternity code. If multiple procedures are performed in the same session, CMS pays the highest-valued procedure in full and pays 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.

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.
