What 64783 covers

This add-on code describes excision of a neuroma from an additional major peripheral nerve other than the sciatic nerve. It may apply when a surgeon treats symptomatic neuromas involving more than one major nerve, such as the median, ulnar, or radial nerve. Peripheral nerve, hand, orthopedic, and plastic surgeons may perform these procedures in an operating room, often for persistent focal nerve pain after trauma or prior surgery.

Report 64783 only with the primary procedure for the first qualifying major peripheral nerve neuroma excision, 64782. The operative report should identify each nerve treated and support that the additional site involved a major peripheral nerve rather than a digital or sciatic nerve. CMS classifies this as an add-on code: it is billed with the primary procedure and paid within that procedure's global period.

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.

64783 billing questions

When should 64783 be reported instead of 64782?

Use 64782 for the first qualifying major peripheral nerve neuroma excision. Report 64783 for an additional qualifying major peripheral nerve treated in the same operative session.

Can 64783 be billed by itself?

No. It is an add-on code and must be reported with the primary procedure, 64782.

Does each additional neuroma count as a unit?

The distinction is an additional major peripheral nerve, not simply another neuroma or incision. The operative documentation should identify the additional nerve treated.

How does the CMS global-period rule affect this code?

CMS places payment for this add-on within the primary procedure's global period. Report it with the related primary procedure rather than as a stand-alone service.

Is this code appropriate for a digital or sciatic nerve neuroma?

No. Digital nerve neuroma excisions use the digital nerve code family, and sciatic nerve neuroma excision has a separate code.
