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

What 64417 covers

This service places anesthetic, sometimes with steroid, around the axillary nerve to interrupt shoulder-region sensation. Pain specialists and anesthesiologists may perform it for diagnostic or therapeutic shoulder pain care, or for analgesia around shoulder surgery. The nerve’s relationship to the humerus and deltoid makes ultrasound or other imaging useful for locating the target; imaging guidance is included in the procedure when performed.

Choose this code when the documented target is the axillary nerve, rather than the brachial plexus or another shoulder nerve. The record should identify the side, clinical indication, nerve target, injectate, and any guidance used. CMS assigns a 0-day global period, so same-day preoperative and postoperative care is included. For bilateral treatment, modifier 50 is paid at 150%. In a same-session multiple-procedure claim, the highest-valued procedure is paid in full and others at 50%. Assistant-at-surgery payment is restricted, and co-surgeons and team surgery are not permitted.

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.
