What 19306 covers
This operation removes the breast along with the pectoral muscles and lymph nodes in both the axilla and internal mammary chain. It is an extensive breast cancer procedure typically performed by a breast surgeon or surgical oncologist in an operating room. The internal mammary node dissection distinguishes this Urban-type operation from other radical mastectomy approaches.
Report the procedure when the operative record supports removal of all these structures; the included nodal work is part of the operation, not a separate service for the same dissection. Documentation should identify the breast and specify removal of the pectoral muscles, axillary nodes, and internal mammary nodes. CMS assigns a 90-day global period, including the day-before preoperative visit and 90 days of related postoperative care. When 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. Bilateral reporting with modifier 50 is paid at 150%. Assistant-at-surgery payment may be made; co-surgeon payment requires supporting documentation, and team surgery is not permitted.
This summary was written with AI assistance from CMS physician fee schedule data and checked against the CMS billing rules shown here. Rates on this page come directly from CMS files.

19306 billing questions
How is this different from code 19305?
This Urban-type operation includes internal mammary node removal in addition to the breast, pectoral muscles, and axillary nodes. Code 19305 describes a radical mastectomy without that internal mammary node component.
How is this different from a modified radical mastectomy?
Code 19307 preserves the pectoralis major muscle and does not describe the internal mammary node dissection included in this operation. Use the operative details to distinguish the procedures.
Can the axillary or internal mammary node dissection be reported separately?
The node removal is included in this operation when performed as part of the mastectomy. Do not separately report the same dissection as an additional service.
What does the 90-day global period include?
It includes the day-before preoperative visit and 90 days of related postoperative care. CMS treats this as major surgery.
How should bilateral procedures be reported?
CMS specifies bilateral reporting with modifier 50, paid at 150%. The operative documentation should support that the procedure was performed on both breasts.
Can an assistant or co-surgeon be reported?
Assistant-at-surgery payment may be made. Co-surgeon payment requires supporting documentation; team surgery is not permitted.
Where these rates come from
FeeBase calculates base physician payments from CMS work, practice-expense and malpractice RVUs, adjusted by each locality’s geographic indexes and the conversion factor. Services without a published rate are labeled, never given a made-up amount. Amounts are Medicare allowed amounts before claim adjustments: not a patient’s bill or a commercial rate.
