What 67923 covers

This procedure corrects entropion, in which an eyelid turns inward and may cause lashes to rub the eye. The surgeon excises a wedge of tarsal tissue and closes the resulting defect to reposition the lid. Ophthalmologists, including oculoplastic surgeons, typically perform the repair in an operating room or an appropriately equipped outpatient surgical setting. The operative report should identify the affected eyelid and document the tarsal wedge excision and repair performed.

Report this code when the documented technique is tarsal wedge excision, rather than suture repair, thermocautery, or an extensive repair using another approach. The 90-day global period includes the day-before preoperative visit and 90 days of related postoperative care. For bilateral procedures, modifier 50 is paid at 150%. When multiple procedures occur in the same session, the highest-valued procedure is paid in full and others at 50%. Medicare does not pay an assistant at surgery for this code; co-surgeons and team surgery are not permitted.

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.
