What 67950 covers

Canthoplasty surgically reshapes or reconstructs the medial or lateral canthus, the corner where the upper and lower eyelids meet. Ophthalmologists, particularly oculoplastic surgeons, may perform it to restore canthal position or support when the canthus is lax, displaced, or deformed. The operative work is directed at the canthal angle itself, rather than simply removing an eyelid lesion or repairing a larger full-thickness eyelid defect.

Report the code when the documented procedure reconstructs the canthus; the operative note should identify the site, the abnormality addressed, and the reconstruction performed. CMS assigns a 90-day global period, including the day-before preoperative visit and 90 days of related postoperative care. When multiple procedures occur in the same session, the highest-valued procedure is paid in full and others at 50%. For bilateral canthoplasty reported with modifier 50, CMS pays at 150%. Assistant-at-surgery payment is statutorily restricted; co-surgeons require supporting documentation, and team surgery is 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.

67950 billing questions

When should I choose canthoplasty rather than an eyelid defect repair code?

Use 67950 when the operative work reconstructs the canthal angle. Codes such as 67961 or 67966 describe excision and repair of a full-thickness eyelid defect, with the applicable extent determining the code.

Does the 90-day global period include postoperative visits?

Yes. The day-before preoperative visit and 90 days of related postoperative care are included in the global period.

How is bilateral canthoplasty reported?

Report bilateral surgery with modifier 50; CMS pays the bilateral procedure at 150%.

Can an assistant-at-surgery or co-surgeon be paid?

Assistant-at-surgery payment is subject to a statutory restriction. Co-surgeons are paid only with supporting documentation, and team surgery is not permitted.

What happens when canthoplasty is performed with another procedure in the same session?

CMS applies the standard multiple procedure reduction: the highest-valued procedure is paid in full and the others at 50%. The operative documentation should make clear what canthal reconstruction was performed.

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.
