What 67105 covers

An ophthalmologist uses photocoagulation to treat an established retinal detachment, creating a chorioretinal adhesion to secure the retina. Subretinal fluid drainage may be performed as part of the repair. The service is distinct from preventive treatment of a retinal break before detachment has occurred, and from repairs performed using other techniques such as cryotherapy, pneumatic retinopexy, or scleral buckling.

Report 67105 when the operative documentation supports repair of a retinal detachment by photocoagulation; document the detachment, treatment method, and any drainage performed. The code has a 10-day global period, so related postoperative visits during that period are included. For multiple procedures in the same session, the highest-valued procedure is paid in full and others at 50%. Bilateral reporting with modifier 50 is paid at 150%. Assistant-at-surgery payment is restricted; co-surgeons and team surgery are not permitted.

67105 billing questions

How does 67105 differ from 67145?

67105 is for repairing an established retinal detachment with photocoagulation. 67145 is for prophylactic photocoagulation of a retinal break or other retinal lesion when detachment has not occurred.

When should 67101 be used instead?

67101 describes retinal detachment repair using cryotherapy. Choose 67105 when the documented repair method is photocoagulation.

Is subretinal fluid drainage separately reported?

Drainage of subretinal fluid is included when performed as part of the 67105 repair. The operative note should identify the detachment and photocoagulation treatment.

How are bilateral procedures reported?

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.
