What 64766 covers

This code describes an operation that incises or divides a peripheral nerve located in the hip or thigh, interrupting its nerve transmission. A surgeon performs the procedure when the treatment plan calls for intentional interruption of that nerve; the operative report should identify the nerve and explain the clinical reason for treating it. The code is specific to the nerve’s hip or thigh location, not simply the site of an incision or the patient’s symptoms.

Select this code when the documented procedure is nerve incision or division, rather than removal of a nerve lesion. The operative note should support the nerve treated, its location, the work performed, and the reason for the intervention. CMS assigns a 90-day global period, including the day-before preoperative visit and 90 days of related postoperative care. When multiple procedures are performed in one session, the highest-valued procedure is paid in full and other procedures are subject to the standard multiple procedure reduction. Bilateral reporting with modifier 50 is paid at 150%. Assistant-at-surgery payment may be made; 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.

64766 billing questions

How is this code distinguished from 64763?

Both CMS short descriptors identify incision of a hip or thigh nerve. Use the code whose full CPT descriptor and documented nerve procedure match the operation; the short descriptor alone does not distinguish the services.

Can nerve lesion removal be reported instead?

Not when the documented work is nerve incision or division. For a procedure that excises a sciatic nerve lesion, evaluate 64786 instead and ensure the operative report supports lesion removal.

What should the operative report document?

Identify the nerve and its hip or thigh location, describe the incision or division performed, and state the clinical purpose. Documentation should make clear that the work was nerve interruption rather than lesion excision.

How does the 90-day global period affect postoperative visits?

The day-before preoperative visit and 90 days of related postoperative care are included in the global period. Report a separate service only when applicable coding rules support it.

How is bilateral surgery reported?

For bilateral procedures, report modifier 50; CMS pays the bilateral procedure at 150%. The record should support treatment of the nerve on both sides.

May an assistant or co-surgeon be reported?

Assistant-at-surgery payment may be made for this procedure. Co-surgeons and team surgery are not permitted.

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.
