What 67225 covers
This add-on represents photodynamic therapy to the second eye during the same session as treatment of the first eye. An ophthalmologist, often a retina specialist, uses an intravenous photosensitizing drug followed by laser activation to treat a targeted choroidal lesion, such as choroidal neovascularization. Treatment may occur in an ophthalmology office or an outpatient facility, depending on the practice and setting.
Report this code only with the primary photodynamic therapy procedure when both eyes are treated in the same session. Documentation should identify both treated eyes, the choroidal condition, and the treatment performed in each eye. CMS classifies the code as an add-on: it is billed only with a primary procedure, and payment is included within that procedure's global period. It does not represent a separate session for later treatment of the other eye.
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.

67225 billing questions
Which primary code must accompany this add-on?
Report it with 67221 when photodynamic therapy is performed on the second eye in the same session as primary-eye treatment.
Can this code be reported for treatment on a later date?
No. It represents treatment of the second eye during the same session as the primary procedure, not a later visit.
What documentation supports reporting the second-eye service?
Document the choroidal condition and the treatment performed in each eye, including which eye received the primary procedure and which received the add-on service.
How does CMS treat payment for this code?
CMS identifies it as an add-on that must be billed with a primary procedure; payment is within that procedure's global period.
Is treatment of the second eye reported as another primary procedure?
For same-session treatment of the second eye, report this add-on with the primary photodynamic therapy code rather than reporting a separate primary procedure.
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.
