What 67113 covers
A vitreoretinal surgeon uses this code for complex retinal detachment repair involving vitrectomy and membrane peeling. Cases may involve proliferative vitreoretinopathy or traction from diabetic retinopathy. Depending on the operative findings, repair may also include draining subretinal fluid, laser or cryotherapy, a scleral buckle, and gas or oil tamponade. These procedures are typically performed in an operating room, most often in a facility setting.
Choose this code when the documented detachment and operative work support a complex repair, rather than a less complex detachment procedure. The operative report should establish the retinal pathology and describe the vitrectomy, membrane work, and other repair steps performed. The day-before preoperative visit and 90 days of related postoperative care are included in the global period. For multiple procedures in one 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 may be made; co-surgeons require supporting documentation, and team surgery is not permitted.

67113 billing questions
When should 67113 be chosen over 67108?
Use 67113 when the detachment is complex and the operative work supports vitrectomy with membrane peeling. Use 67108 for a detachment repair with vitrectomy when the case does not meet the complex-repair criteria.
What operative details support 67113?
Document the pathology establishing complexity, such as proliferative vitreoretinopathy or diabetic traction, and the vitrectomy and membrane work performed. Include other repair steps, such as drainage, laser, buckle, or tamponade, when performed.
Are gas or oil tamponade and laser separately reported as part of the repair?
These may be steps in the retinal repair represented by 67113. The operative report should describe the steps performed as part of the complex repair.
How does the 90-day global period affect postoperative billing?
The day-before preoperative visit and 90 days of related postoperative care are included in the global period for 67113.
How are bilateral repairs and multiple same-session procedures handled?
Bilateral reporting with modifier 50 is paid at 150%. When multiple procedures are performed in the same session, the highest-valued procedure is paid in full and the others are paid at 50%.
Can an assistant or co-surgeon be reported for 67113?
Assistant-at-surgery payment may be made. Co-surgeons are paid only with supporting documentation; team surgery is not permitted.
