Foot surgery

About 28062: Radical plantar fascia excision

Reports broad excision of plantar fascia, commonly for symptomatic plantar fibromatosis when the operation removes substantially more tissue than a partial fasciectomy.

Code 28062 represents a broad, radical excision of plantar fascia rather than a limited partial fasciectomy. A common indication is symptomatic plantar fibromatosis, in which fibrous nodules develop in the plantar aponeurosis; the surgeon removes a substantial diseased fascial segment. An orthopedic foot-and-ankle surgeon or podiatric surgeon typically performs the operation in a surgical setting for extensive or persistent fascial disease.

Select the code from the operative work and the extent of fascia removed, not from the diagnosis alone. The operative report should identify the plantar fascia as the target and describe the tissue removed and the extent of excision. CMS classifies this as major surgery: the day-before preoperative visit and 90 days of related postoperative care are included. When multiple procedures occur in the same session, the highest-valued is paid in full and other procedures at 50%. Bilateral reporting with modifier 50 is paid at 150%. Assistant-at-surgery payment is restricted; co-surgeons require supporting documentation, and team surgery is not permitted.

28062 billing questions

How do I choose between 28062 and 28060?

Use 28062 when the operative work is a broad, radical plantar fascia excision. Use 28060 for partial plantar fasciectomy; the operative extent, not simply the diagnosis, distinguishes them.

Can plantar fibromatosis support 28062?

Yes, when the surgeon performs the radical plantar fascia excision represented by this code. Document the fascia treated and the extent of tissue removed.

Is related postoperative care separately reported during the global period?

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

How is bilateral 28062 reported?

CMS pays the bilateral procedure at 150% when reported with modifier 50.

How does CMS pay when other procedures are performed in the same session?

The highest-valued procedure is paid in full and the other procedures are paid at 50%. Assistant-at-surgery payment is restricted; co-surgeons require 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.
