What 67141 covers

This procedure applies cryotherapy or diathermy to retinal tissue around a break or another area considered at risk for detachment, creating an adhesion intended to help contain the problem. It is typically performed by an ophthalmologist, often a retina specialist, in an office or surgical facility. The clinical purpose is preventive treatment; an established retinal detachment calls for a repair procedure rather than this prophylaxis code.

Report the code when the documented treatment uses cryotherapy or diathermy for retinal detachment prophylaxis. The record should support the preventive indication, treated eye and retinal finding, and method used; photocoagulation prophylaxis is represented by a different code. The procedure has a 10-day global period, so related postoperative visits during that period are included. When multiple procedures are performed in the same session, the highest-valued procedure is paid in full and others at 50%. For bilateral treatment, modifier 50 is paid at 150%. Assistant-at-surgery payment is restricted, and co-surgeons and team surgery are not permitted.

67141 billing questions

When should 67141 be chosen instead of 67145?

Use 67141 for retinal detachment prophylaxis performed with cryotherapy or diathermy. Use 67145 when the preventive treatment is performed with photocoagulation.

Is this code for an established retinal detachment?

No. It represents preventive treatment of a retinal break or other risk area; established detachment repair is reported with a repair code, such as 67101 or 67105, depending on the procedure.

Are related postoperative visits separately reported during the global period?

Related postoperative visits during the 10-day global period are included in the procedure.

How is bilateral treatment reported?

For treatment of both eyes, report modifier 50; CMS pays the bilateral procedure at 150%.

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.
