What 64787 covers

The surgeon places a divided nerve end into muscle or bone, commonly when treating a symptomatic neuroma or managing a nerve stump during another nerve procedure. The operative report should identify the nerve and site, describe the implantation and its destination, and document the related primary procedure. This work is typically performed in an operating room by a surgeon treating peripheral nerve conditions.

Code 64787 is an add-on, not a stand-alone service: report it only with an eligible primary procedure. CMS pays it within the primary procedure’s global period, so it is not separately paid as a service outside that period. The documentation should distinguish the nerve-end implantation from the primary excision or other nerve work. Identify the primary code and explain why the nerve end was implanted rather than simply documenting nerve division or removal.

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.

64787 billing questions

Can 64787 be reported by itself?

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

Is nerve-end implantation included in the neuroma excision?

The implantation is additional work when the nerve end is placed into muscle or bone. Document that step separately from the neuroma excision or other primary nerve procedure.

What should the operative report document?

Name the nerve and operative site, describe the placement of its end, identify whether it was implanted into muscle or bone, and state the related primary procedure.

How does the global-period payment rule affect 64787?

CMS pays this add-on within the primary procedure’s global period. It is not paid as a separate service outside that period.

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.
