Urologic surgery
About 50100: Aberrant renal vessel repositioning
Reports operative transposition or repositioning of an aberrant renal vessel, commonly to relieve obstruction associated with a crossing vessel near the ureteropelvic junction.
A urologist or other surgeon repositions an abnormally located renal vessel when its course creates a problem such as compression near the ureteropelvic junction. A common clinical context is a crossing vessel associated with impaired drainage from the kidney. The operative work centers on moving the vessel; this is distinct from opening or reconstructing the renal pelvis. The service is generally performed in an operating room.
Report 50100 when the operative documentation supports actual transposition or repositioning of the aberrant renal vessel. Document the vessel involved, its abnormal course, the clinical reason for moving it, and the work performed. CMS assigns a 90-day major-surgery global period, including the day-before preoperative visit and 90 days of related postoperative care. When multiple procedures occur in the same session, the highest-valued procedure is paid in full and others at 50%. 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.

50100 billing questions
When should 50100 be chosen instead of a pyeloplasty code?
Use 50100 for operative repositioning or transposition of an aberrant renal vessel. A pyeloplasty describes reconstruction of the renal pelvis or ureteropelvic junction rather than vessel movement.
Can 50100 be reported with a pyeloplasty?
The services describe different operative work: vessel repositioning and reconstruction of the urinary drainage junction. If both are performed, the record should distinguish the work, and applicable coding edits should be reviewed.
What documentation supports 50100?
Document the renal vessel’s abnormal course, the related clinical problem, and the operative steps that transposed or repositioned it. Include laterality when relevant to the procedure.
How is bilateral 50100 reported?
For a bilateral procedure, CMS payment is 150% when modifier 50 is used.
What postoperative care is included?
The 90-day global period includes the day-before preoperative visit and 90 days of related postoperative care.
Can an assistant or co-surgeon be paid?
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 indices and the applicable conversion factor. Unavailable or separately priced services are labeled rather than assigned a made-up amount.
