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

What 67908 covers

This code describes repair of upper eyelid ptosis through a posterior approach. The surgeon removes a portion of conjunctiva and Müller muscle to elevate the lid; tarsus may also be resected. Oculoplastic ophthalmologists typically perform the procedure in an operating room, often for a patient whose upper lid droops enough to obstruct vision or impair visual function. It is distinct from repairs using a frontalis sling or an external levator approach.

Select the code when the operative report supports the posterior conjunctiva-and-Müller-muscle technique, with or without tarsal resection. Document the affected lid, the ptosis and its functional impact, and the tissue and approach used. CMS assigns a 90-day global period, including the day-before preoperative visit and related postoperative care. For bilateral reporting, modifier 50 is paid at 150%. When multiple procedures occur in one session, the highest-valued procedure is paid in full and others at 50%. Assistant-at-surgery payment is restricted; co-surgeons and team surgery are not permitted.
