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

What 65093 covers

In this operation, the surgeon removes the contents of the eye but leaves the scleral shell in place and places an implant within it. Ophthalmologists typically perform the procedure in a surgical facility for conditions such as a blind, painful eye when evisceration is selected. The implant supports the appearance and volume of the eye socket; a prosthetic eye may be fitted after healing.

Report 65093 when the operative record supports evisceration with implant placement, not removal of the entire globe. Documentation should identify the procedure performed and the implant. CMS assigns a 90-day global period, including the day-before preoperative visit and 90 days of related postoperative care. When multiple procedures occur in the same session, the highest-valued procedure is paid in full and other procedures are subject to a 50% reduction. Bilateral reporting with modifier 50 is paid at 150%. Assistant-at-surgery payment is restricted; co-surgeons require supporting documentation, and team surgery is not permitted.
