About 24670: Closed proximal ulna fracture treatment

Closed management of a proximal ulna fracture without manipulation, typically for a stable fracture treated with immobilization and ongoing fracture care.

Code 24670 represents closed management of a proximal ulna fracture without manipulating bone fragments to restore alignment. Care commonly includes immobilization in a cast or splint and planned fracture follow-up. A stable, nondisplaced fracture of the proximal ulna, including an olecranon-region fracture, may fit when treated without manipulation. The orthopedic surgeon or other practitioner who assumes definitive fracture care reports the service; an emergency evaluation or temporary splint alone is not the full fracture treatment.

Documentation should identify the proximal ulna fracture, support treatment without manipulation, and describe the immobilization and care plan. CMS assigns a 90-day global period, including the day-before preoperative visit and 90 days of related postoperative care. For multiple procedures in one session, the highest-valued procedure is paid in full and others at 50%. Bilateral reporting with modifier 50 is paid at 150%. A statutory restriction bars assistant-at-surgery payment; co-surgeons and team surgery are not permitted.

24670 billing questions

When should 24670 be chosen instead of 24675?

Use 24670 when the proximal ulna fracture is treated without manipulating the fragments. If the clinician manipulates the fracture to restore alignment, consider 24675.

Can the cast or splint be billed separately?

Routine immobilization and related fracture follow-up are part of the fracture-treatment service. A temporary splint used only during evaluation does not by itself establish that definitive fracture care was provided.

What documentation supports 24670?

Record the fracture location in the proximal ulna, the closed treatment plan, and that no manipulation was performed. Include the immobilization and follow-up plan.

How should bilateral proximal ulna fractures be reported?

For bilateral treatment, CMS pays 24670 with modifier 50 at 150%, according to the listed bilateral rule.

What postoperative care is included?

The 90-day 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.
