About 25660: Closed wrist dislocation reduction
Report closed manipulation to reduce one or more radiocarpal or intercarpal dislocations when the wrist is treated without open exposure.
This service treats a dislocation involving the radiocarpal or intercarpal joints by manipulating the wrist to restore alignment without surgically exposing the joint. An orthopedic or hand surgeon may perform the reduction in a hospital or other acute-care setting. The code covers one or more dislocations in the specified joint group; it is not selected by counting each dislocated joint as a separate service. A perilunate injury with an associated scaphoid fracture or a separately specified lunate dislocation may fall under a more specific code.
Document the joint or joints involved, the dislocation, the closed reduction maneuver, and the post-reduction findings. The service has 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 at 50%. Bilateral reporting with modifier 50 is paid at 150%. Assistant-at-surgery payment requires documented medical necessity; co-surgeons and team surgery are not permitted.

25660 billing questions
When is this code appropriate instead of the open-treatment code?
Use this code when the radiocarpal or intercarpal dislocation is reduced by manipulation without open surgical exposure. Open treatment of the same joint group is reported with 25670.
Does the code cover more than one dislocated joint?
Yes. The code covers one or more radiocarpal or intercarpal dislocations; do not report separate units solely because multiple joints are involved.
What documentation supports reporting the reduction?
Record the dislocated joint or joints, the closed manipulation performed, and the reduction outcome. Post-reduction examination or imaging findings can support the documented result.
How is a perilunate fracture-dislocation distinguished?
When the injury includes a scaphoid fracture with a perilunate dislocation and is treated closed with manipulation, compare 25680, which specifically describes that fracture-dislocation.
Can an assistant surgeon be reported?
Assistant-at-surgery payment is allowed only when medical necessity is documented. Co-surgeons and team surgery are not permitted for this code.
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.
