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

What 67902 covers

This operation lifts a drooping upper eyelid by connecting the tarsus, the firm supporting plate of the lid, to the frontalis muscle with a fascial sling. The forehead muscle then helps raise the eyelid. Ophthalmologists, especially oculoplastic surgeons, commonly perform it for significant blepharoptosis with poor levator function, including cases where the lid obstructs vision. The sling may use the patient’s fascia or banked fascia.

Report this code when the operative technique uses a fascial sling routed to the frontalis, rather than a nonfascial sling or a levator-based repair. Documentation should identify the affected eyelid, ptosis findings, levator function, and the sling technique and material. Medicare assigns a 90-day global period, including the day-before preoperative visit and related postoperative care during that period. For bilateral surgery, modifier 50 is paid at 150%. When multiple procedures occur in one session, the highest-valued procedure is paid in full and the others at 50%. Assistant-at-surgery payment is restricted; co-surgeons require supporting documentation, and team surgery is not permitted.
