What 58562 covers

A gynecologist or other qualified clinician uses a hysteroscope passed through the cervix to locate and remove a foreign body from the uterine cavity. A typical situation is retrieving an intrauterine device that cannot be removed with a simple office traction attempt or whose strings are not accessible. The service may be performed in an office or a facility, depending on the case and resources needed.

Report 58562 when the operative work removes a foreign body; the operative note should identify the object, its location, the hysteroscopic approach, and the removal performed. A diagnostic examination that precedes the removal is part of the surgical service. The code has a 0-day global period, so same-day preoperative and postoperative care is included. When related endoscopies are performed together, endoscopy family pricing applies. Bilateral adjustment is inappropriate. Medicare does not pay an assistant at surgery for this code; co-surgeons are permitted, while team surgery is not permitted.

How to choose

58555Hysteroscopy
58555 describes diagnostic hysteroscopy without operative removal. Choose 58562 when the hysteroscope is used to remove a foreign body.
58558Hysteroscopy
58558 is for hysteroscopic biopsy or tissue removal. Use 58562 when the target is a foreign body rather than tissue sampled or removed for pathology.
58559Hysteroscopy
58559 addresses hysteroscopic lysis of intrauterine adhesions. It is not the code for removing a foreign body from the cavity.
58561Myoma removal
58561 applies to hysteroscopic removal of a uterine myoma. Use 58562 for removal of a foreign body instead.

58562 billing questions

When should 58562 be chosen over diagnostic hysteroscopy?

Use 58562 when hysteroscopic operative work removes a foreign body from the uterine cavity. A diagnostic examination without removal is a different service.

Is the diagnostic examination separately reported with 58562?

The diagnostic look that guides the foreign-body removal is included in the surgical hysteroscopy. Do not report a separate diagnostic hysteroscopy for that same operative session.

What documentation supports 58562?

Document the foreign body, its intrauterine location, the hysteroscopic technique, and the work performed to remove it. If removal was unsuccessful or only attempted, the note should clearly describe what occurred.

Can modifier 50 be used for bilateral removal?

No. CMS identifies bilateral adjustment as inappropriate for this code; the descriptor or anatomy does not support modifier 50.

How does the 0-day global period affect same-day care?

Same-day preoperative and postoperative care is included in the procedure. The code has a 0-day global period.

Can an assistant or co-surgeon be reported?

Medicare does not pay an assistant at surgery for 58562. Co-surgeons are permitted, but team surgery is not.

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.
