About 24560: Closed humeral epicondyle fracture treatment

Reports closed care of a humeral epicondyle fracture managed without manipulation, such as immobilization and ongoing fracture management by the treating clinician.

This code describes closed management of a fracture at a humeral epicondyle near the elbow when the clinician treats the fracture without manipulating the fragments. Care may include immobilization in a cast or splint and the physician’s management of healing. Orthopedic surgeons and other clinicians qualified to manage fractures may provide this service in an office, emergency department, or hospital setting. The fracture must involve an epicondyle of the humerus; a supracondylar or condylar fracture is a different location.

Choose this code when the documented treatment does not involve manipulation, percutaneous skeletal fixation, or open treatment. The record should identify the fracture site and support the closed treatment provided. Medicare assigns a 90-day global period, which includes 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 are subject to the standard 50% reduction. For bilateral treatment reported with modifier 50, payment is at 150%. Medicare does not pay for an assistant at surgery for this code; co-surgeons and team surgery are not permitted.
