Ophthalmology
About 65430: Diagnostic corneal scraping for smear or culture
An ophthalmologist scrapes material from a suspected infected corneal surface to obtain a specimen for smear, culture, or both.
An ophthalmologist uses a sterile instrument to collect superficial material from the corneal surface when an ulcer or infiltrate raises concern for infectious keratitis. The sample is placed on slides and/or submitted for culture, allowing microbiology testing to identify an organism and guide treatment. The service is typically performed in an eye clinic or hospital setting; it is diagnostic sampling, not removal of diseased tissue or therapeutic epithelial debridement.
Report 65430 for the corneal scraping itself when the record identifies the eye, the suspicious corneal finding, and specimen collection for smear, culture, or both. Laboratory microscopy and culture are distinct testing services and may be separately reported by the laboratory when performed. CMS assigns a 0-day global period, so same-day preoperative and postoperative care is included. When other procedures are performed in the same session, the highest-valued procedure is paid in full and the others are subject to a 50% multiple-procedure reduction. For bilateral scraping, modifier 50 is paid at 150%. Medicare does not pay an assistant at surgery; co-surgeons and team surgery are not permitted.

How this local rate is calculated
Each RVU component is multiplied by its own geographic practice cost index (GPCI). The three adjusted components are added, then multiplied by the conversion factor. These are the inputs used for 65430 in El Centro.

The office and facility calculations use their respective practice-expense RVUs. The facility amount here is the physician fee, not a separate hospital or facility bill.

65430 billing questions
When should 65430 be used instead of 65410?
Use 65430 when the clinician scrapes the corneal surface to obtain material for smear, culture, or both. Use 65410 when the service is a corneal biopsy rather than surface scraping.
Can the laboratory testing be billed separately?
The code represents collection of the corneal specimen. Microscopy or culture performed on that specimen is a distinct laboratory service and may be reported separately by the laboratory when performed.
What documentation supports 65430?
Document the eye, the corneal ulcer or infiltrate prompting diagnostic sampling, the scraping performed, and whether material was collected for smear, culture, or both.
How is bilateral corneal scraping reported?
When both corneas are scraped, report the bilateral procedure with modifier 50. CMS pays the bilateral procedure at 150%.
How does another procedure in the same session affect payment?
CMS pays the highest-valued procedure in full and applies a 50% multiple-procedure reduction to the others. Same-day preoperative and postoperative care is included in 65430's 0-day global period.
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.
