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

What 60210 covers

A surgeon removes part of the thyroid gland while leaving thyroid tissue in place. This operation may be performed for conditions such as a thyroid nodule or goiter when the planned and completed resection is partial rather than removal of the entire gland. It is typically performed in an operating room by a general or endocrine surgeon, with the operative report documenting the resection and the remaining thyroid tissue.

Select the code from the extent of surgery actually performed, not only the diagnosis or the preoperative plan. The operative note should describe the tissue removed and the side or sides involved so the service can be distinguished from a limited lesion excision or a more extensive thyroidectomy. Medicare includes the day-before preoperative visit and related care during the 90 days after surgery in the global package. When multiple procedures are performed in the same session, the highest-valued procedure is paid in full and other procedures are subject to the standard multiple-procedure reduction. Assistant-at-surgery payment may be available; co-surgeon payment requires supporting documentation, and team surgery is not permitted.
