Gynecologic surgery
About 58544: Laparoscopic supracervical hysterectomy with adnexal removal
Reports laparoscopic removal of a uterus weighing more than 250 g while retaining the cervix, with removal of one or both tubes and/or ovaries.
A gynecologic surgeon performs this laparoscopic supracervical hysterectomy for a uterus weighing more than 250 g, removing the uterine body while leaving the cervix in place. The procedure also includes removal of one or both fallopian tubes and/or ovaries. It may be used for conditions such as symptomatic fibroids or abnormal uterine bleeding when hysterectomy is selected. These operations are typically performed in a hospital or ambulatory surgery facility.
Choose this code when the operative approach is laparoscopic, the cervix is retained, the uterus exceeds the 250 g threshold, and tubes and/or ovaries are removed. The operative report should establish the approach, cervical status, adnexal removal, and uterine weight; pathology documentation can support specimen weight. The day-before preoperative visit and 90 days of related postoperative care are included in the global period. For multiple procedures in one session, the highest-valued procedure is paid in full and other procedures are subject to the standard 50% reduction. Bilateral adjustment does not apply, so modifier 50 is not appropriate. Assistant-at-surgery payment may be available, and co-surgeons are permitted; team surgery is not permitted.

58544 billing questions
When should 58544 be selected instead of 58543?
Use 58544 when tubes and/or ovaries are removed along with the laparoscopic supracervical hysterectomy. Code 58543 represents the corresponding procedure without that adnexal removal.
Does this code include removal of the tubes or ovaries?
Yes. Removal of one or both tubes and/or ovaries is part of the service represented by 58544; do not separately report that removal as though it were outside the coded procedure.
What documentation supports the 250 g threshold?
The operative report should identify the laparoscopic approach, retained cervix, and adnexal removal. Document the uterine specimen weight, with pathology documentation supporting the weight when available.
Should modifier 50 be appended for removal on both sides?
No. CMS identifies bilateral adjustment as inapplicable to this code, so modifier 50 is not appropriate.
What postoperative care is included?
The major-surgery global period includes the day-before preoperative visit and 90 days of related postoperative care.
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.
