Vascular surgery

About 35207: Direct hand or finger vessel repair

Reports direct repair of a damaged blood vessel in the hand or finger, such as primary suture repair after a traumatic laceration.

This service repairs a blood vessel in the hand or finger directly, typically by suturing the injured vessel without placing an interposed graft. It may be performed by a vascular, hand, or trauma surgeon in the operating room for injuries such as a vessel laceration from trauma or an operative injury. The operative report should establish that the repair involved a hand or finger vessel and describe the direct repair performed.

Select this code for direct repair at the hand or finger site; distinguish it from codes for other anatomic sites and from repairs that use a graft. Medicare includes the day-before preoperative visit and 90 days of related postoperative care in this major-surgery service. For multiple procedures in the same session, the highest-valued procedure is paid in full and other procedures are subject to the standard 50% reduction. Modifier 50 applies to a bilateral procedure, paid at 150%. Medicare does not pay an assistant at surgery for this service; co-surgeons require supporting documentation, and team surgery is not permitted.

35207 billing questions

How is this distinguished from 35206?

Use 35207 when the directly repaired vessel is in the hand or finger. Code 35206 describes direct vessel repair at another upper-extremity site; the operative location should support the selection.

Does this code include repair with a graft?

No. It describes direct repair without an interposed graft. A repair using a vein graft or another graft type belongs to the applicable graft-repair code.

What documentation supports reporting 35207?

Document the hand or finger vessel involved, the injury or defect, and how the vessel was repaired. The operative note should make clear that the repair was direct rather than graft-based.

Can modifier 50 be used for bilateral repairs?

For a bilateral procedure, CMS pays this code with modifier 50 at 150%. The record should support repair on both sides.

How does the 90-day global period affect postoperative billing?

The day-before preoperative visit and 90 days of related postoperative care are included in the global period. Medicare applies the standard multiple-procedure reduction when other procedures are performed in the same session.

Can an assistant or co-surgeon be reported?

Medicare does not pay an assistant at surgery for this service. Co-surgeon payment requires supporting documentation, and team surgery is 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 indices and the applicable conversion factor. Unavailable or separately priced services are labeled rather than assigned a made-up amount.
