About 21395: Orbital floor fracture repair with bone graft
Open repair of an orbital floor fracture through a periorbital approach with bone grafting to reconstruct the floor and support orbital contents.
This service treats an orbital floor blowout fracture through a periorbital surgical approach, with bone graft used to rebuild the injured floor. The surgeon exposes the fracture, addresses displaced orbital tissues as part of the repair, and places graft to restore support. It is typically performed by a surgeon experienced in facial or orbital trauma, such as an oculoplastic, facial plastic, otolaryngology, or oral and maxillofacial surgeon, in an operating room.
Report this code when the operative repair uses the periorbital approach and includes bone grafting. The operative report should identify the fracture, approach, graft use, and treated side. Medicare assigns a 90-day global period, including the day-before preoperative visit and 90 days of related postoperative care. When multiple procedures are performed in the same session, the highest-valued procedure is paid in full and other procedures are subject to the standard 50% reduction. Bilateral reporting with modifier 50 is paid at 150%. Assistant-at-surgery payment may be available; co-surgeon payment requires supporting documentation, and team-surgery payment is not permitted.

21395 billing questions
How is this code distinguished from 21386?
Both describe orbital fracture repair through a periorbital approach, but this code includes bone grafting. Use 21386 when the repair does not include a graft.
Does an orbital implant qualify as the graft in this code?
No. A repair using an implant rather than bone grafting is distinguished by 21390. The operative report should make the reconstruction material clear.
What documentation supports reporting this code?
Document the orbital floor fracture, periorbital approach, bone graft placement, and side treated. The operative report should describe the repair sufficiently to establish those elements.
How is bilateral repair reported under the CMS fee schedule?
For bilateral procedures reported with modifier 50, CMS pays this code at 150%. Document the repair performed on each side.
Are related postoperative visits separately included?
The 90-day global period includes the day-before preoperative visit and 90 days of related postoperative care.
Can an assistant or co-surgeon be reported?
Assistant-at-surgery payment may be available. Co-surgeon payment requires supporting documentation; CMS does not permit team-surgery payment for this service.
Where these rates come from
FeeBase calculates base physician payments from CMS work, practice-expense, and malpractice RVUs, adjusted by each locality’s geographic indices and the applicable conversion factor. Unavailable or separately priced services are labeled rather than assigned a made-up amount.
