Medicare allowed amount for participating (non-QP) physicians, before deductible, coinsurance and claim adjustments. Not a patient’s bill or a hospital charge.

What 67808 covers

An ophthalmologist or oculoplastic surgeon uses this code for excision of a non-chalazion eyelid lesion that involves the lid margin through its full thickness. The operative service may be performed in an office procedure room or an operating room. Examples of relevant documentation include the lesion’s eyelid location and the tissue depth and margin involvement that support full-thickness excision.

Choose this code based on the documented extent of the excision, not simply the presence of an eyelid growth or the number of lesions. The note should identify the lesion and describe the full-thickness lid-margin removal and any closure or reconstruction performed. Medicare assigns a 90-day global period, which includes the day-before preoperative visit and 90 days of related postoperative care. 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 for this code; assistant-at-surgery payment is restricted, and co-surgeons and team surgery are not permitted.
