Dermatology procedure

About 11302: Shave removal of trunk or limb lesion

Reports shave removal of a 1.1–2.0 cm skin lesion on the trunk, arm, or leg when the lesion is removed at or near the skin surface.

This service removes a skin lesion by shaving at or near the skin surface, without excising a full-thickness section of surrounding skin. It applies to a single lesion on the trunk, an arm, or a leg when its documented diameter falls in the 1.1–2.0 cm size group. Dermatologists and other clinicians who perform skin procedures commonly provide it in an office setting; the removed tissue may be submitted for pathology.

Select the code by the lesion’s location and diameter, and document the site, size, removal method, and clinical reason. Report each lesion separately rather than combining measurements. The procedure has a 0-day global period, so same-day preoperative and postoperative care is included. When multiple procedures are performed in one session, the highest-valued procedure is paid in full and the others at 50%. Assistant-at-surgery payment requires documented medical necessity; co-surgeons and team surgery are not permitted.

Why are the office and facility amounts different?

For 11302 in Delaware, the physician’s office rate is $130.33 and the facility-setting rate is $48.16: a difference of $82.17.

The calculation uses a different practice-expense RVU for each setting. Both amounts here are physician fee-schedule amounts. The facility figure does not include a hospital’s separate charges, so this comparison does not tell you the total cost of receiving care in each setting.

11302 billing questions

Which lesion sites qualify for 11302?

Use it for a lesion on the trunk, arm, or leg measuring 1.1–2.0 cm. The shave codes for other anatomic site groups use different code families.

How does 11302 differ from a tangential biopsy?

11302 describes shave removal of the lesion. When the clinician takes only a sample for diagnosis rather than removing the lesion, consider the tangential biopsy code family, such as 11102.

How should multiple lesions be reported?

Report each lesion separately using its own site and diameter. When procedures are performed in the same session, the highest-valued procedure is paid in full and the others at 50%.

Is same-day care included in the procedure?

The 0-day global period includes same-day preoperative and postoperative care. A separate service requires its own support and must not represent that included care.

Can an assistant or another 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.
