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

What 64582 covers

A surgeon implants a stimulation lead at the hypoglossal nerve, a respiratory sensing lead, and a pulse generator, generally during an operating-room procedure for a patient selected for hypoglossal nerve stimulation to treat obstructive sleep apnea. System testing and programming performed during implantation, and imaging guidance when used, are part of the service. Otolaryngologists and surgeons specializing in sleep-disordered breathing commonly perform the operation.

Report this code for the initial open implantation of the system, not for later revision, replacement, or removal. The operative report should identify the implanted components and document the procedure performed. CMS assigns a 90-day global period, which includes the day-before preoperative visit and 90 days of related postoperative care. When multiple procedures are performed in the same session, the highest-valued procedure is paid in full and the others at 50%. CMS pays a bilateral procedure reported with modifier 50 at 150%. Assistant-at-surgery payment requires documented medical necessity; co-surgeons and team surgery are not permitted.
