What 64612 covers
This service uses targeted injections to reduce activity in facial muscles supplied by the facial nerve. Typical indications include blepharospasm and hemifacial spasm. Neurologists and ophthalmologists commonly perform it; other physicians with relevant expertise may provide treatment in office or facility settings. The injected muscles may include muscles around the eye or elsewhere in the face, depending on the documented disorder and treatment plan.
Select 64612 for unilateral treatment of facial nerve–innervated muscles, not by counting injection sites. For treatment on both sides, report modifier 50; CMS pays the bilateral procedure at 150%. Document the treated side, muscles, indication, and procedure performed. Related postoperative visits during the 10-day global period are included. When multiple procedures are performed in the same session, the highest-valued procedure is paid in full and the others at 50%. Assistant-at-surgery payment is statutorily 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.

64612 billing questions
When should 64612 be used instead of 64615?
Use 64612 for treatment of facial nerve–innervated muscles, such as for blepharospasm or hemifacial spasm. Code 64615 describes chemodenervation for chronic migraine involving specified head and neck muscle groups.
Is 64612 reported per muscle or injection site?
No. Select the code for the unilateral facial nerve muscle treatment, rather than billing a unit for each muscle or injection site.
How is treatment on both sides reported?
Report modifier 50 for bilateral treatment. CMS pays the bilateral procedure at 150%.
Are postoperative visits separately payable?
Related postoperative visits during the 10-day global period are included in the procedure payment.
Can the botulinum toxin product be reported separately?
When a separately reportable toxin product is supplied, report the applicable drug code as supported by the product and documentation. For example, J0585 describes onabotulinumtoxinA.
How does CMS apply multiple-procedure payment?
When multiple procedures are performed in the same session, CMS pays the highest-valued procedure in full and the others at 50%.
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.
