Cardiac surgery
About 33464: Tricuspid valve repair with bypass
Reports surgical repair of the tricuspid valve performed with cardiopulmonary bypass, including repair for tricuspid regurgitation when the native valve is preserved.
A cardiac surgeon uses this code for operative repair of the native tricuspid valve when cardiopulmonary bypass is used. The repair may address leaflet or annular problems that prevent proper valve closure, commonly in a patient with tricuspid regurgitation. It is an open cardiac surgical service performed in a hospital operating room; the repair may include annuloplasty, with or without a prosthetic ring, while preserving the native valve.
Select this code when the operative report supports tricuspid valvuloplasty and use of bypass; a replacement or a procedure performed without bypass belongs to a different code. Documentation should identify the valve treated, the repair performed, and bypass use. CMS assigns 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 are subject to the standard multiple-procedure reduction. Assistant-at-surgery payment may be made; co-surgeon payment requires supporting documentation, and team surgery is not permitted.

33464 billing questions
How does this differ from 33463?
The distinguishing factor is cardiopulmonary bypass: this code is for tricuspid repair performed with bypass, while 33463 is the repair code for cases without bypass.
When should the tricuspid valve be coded as replaced instead?
Use 33465 when the native tricuspid valve is replaced rather than repaired. This code describes repair that preserves the native valve.
What documentation supports reporting this code?
The operative report should identify the tricuspid valve repair, describe the repair performed, and document cardiopulmonary bypass use.
How does the 90-day global period affect postoperative billing?
The day-before preoperative visit and 90 days of related postoperative care are included in the global period.
Can assistant or co-surgeon services be reported?
Assistant-at-surgery payment may be made. Co-surgeon payment requires supporting documentation; team surgery is not permitted.
Does modifier 50 apply to this repair?
No. CMS identifies bilateral adjustment as inappropriate for this code because of its descriptor or anatomy.
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.
