What 67800 covers

67800 represents surgical removal of one chalazion, a localized inflammatory lump associated with an obstructed eyelid oil gland. An ophthalmologist commonly performs the procedure in an office procedure room under local anesthesia, opening and curetting the lesion from the inner eyelid. Persistent or symptomatic chalazia are typical reasons for removal; this code is not for excising any type of eyelid growth.

Report this code for one chalazion. For multiple chalazia, select the applicable sibling code based on the number and lid distribution, or the anesthesia circumstances. Document the diagnosis, lesion count and location, anesthesia, and work performed. Related postoperative visits during the 10-day global period are included. When other procedures are performed in the same session, the highest-valued procedure is paid in full and other procedures are subject to the standard multiple procedure reduction. Modifier 50 is inappropriate. Medicare does not pay an assistant at surgery for this service; co-surgeons and team surgery are not permitted.

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.

67800 billing questions

When should 67800 be chosen over a multiple-chalazion code?

Use 67800 for removal of one chalazion. For more than one, choose the applicable sibling code based on lesion count, lid distribution, and anesthesia circumstances.

Is 67800 appropriate for a non-chalazion eyelid growth?

No. It is for a chalazion; a different code may apply to excision or biopsy of another eyelid lesion, depending on the service performed.

Can modifier 50 be appended for chalazia on both eyelids?

No. CMS identifies bilateral adjustment as inappropriate for 67800.

What documentation supports reporting 67800?

Record the chalazion diagnosis, the number and eyelid location of lesions, anesthesia, and the removal technique. The record should support that one chalazion was treated.

How are other procedures performed in the same session paid?

The highest-valued procedure is paid in full, with other procedures subject to the standard multiple procedure reduction. The 10-day global period includes related postoperative visits.

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.
