Urology surgery
About 52630: Repeat transurethral prostate resection
Reports endoscopic removal of residual or recurrent obstructive prostate tissue, typically when urinary obstruction returns after an earlier prostate resection.
A urologist uses a transurethral resectoscope to remove prostate tissue that remains after an earlier resection or has regrown and is again obstructing urine flow. The typical setting is a hospital or ambulatory surgery center, with the patient under anesthesia. The service addresses recurrent or persistent obstruction from prostate tissue, rather than obstruction caused by a bladder-neck contracture. Control of bleeding associated with the operative service is included in this code.
Report 52630 when the operative findings and procedure document removal of residual or recurrent obstructive prostate tissue, not an initial resection of the prostate. The operative note should establish the prior prostate procedure, the obstructive tissue encountered, and the transurethral resection performed. Medicare assigns a 90-day global period, including the day-before preoperative visit and related postoperative care during that period. When other procedures are performed in the same session, the highest-valued procedure is paid in full and other procedures are subject to the standard multiple-procedure reduction. The prostate is not a paired organ for this service, so modifier 50 is inappropriate. Medicare does not pay an assistant at surgery for this code; co-surgeons and team surgery are not permitted.

52630 billing questions
How is 52630 different from 52601?
52630 is for resection of obstructive prostate tissue that remains or regrows after an earlier prostate procedure. Use 52601 for an initial transurethral prostate resection.
Can bleeding control be billed separately?
Control of bleeding associated with the 52630 operative service is included. The code’s descriptor includes this work.
Should modifier 50 be reported?
No. The prostate is not a paired organ for this procedure, so modifier 50 is inappropriate.
What does the 90-day global period include?
It includes the day-before preoperative visit and related postoperative care for 90 days after surgery.
Can an assistant or co-surgeon be billed for 52630?
Medicare does not pay an assistant at surgery for this code. Co-surgeons and team surgery are 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.
