Urology surgery
About 54318: Second-stage urethral reconstruction
Reports the later operation in a planned two-stage reconstruction of the male anterior urethra, typically closing the urethral opening created during the first stage.
This code represents the planned second operation in a staged reconstruction of the male anterior urethra. The surgeon completes the urethral channel using tissue shaped or prepared during the initial operation, often closing a temporary urethral opening. Urologists typically perform the procedure in an operating room when a urethral defect or stricture is managed in stages rather than reconstructed in one operation.
Report it for the second stage, not for the initial preparation or a one-stage repair. The operative report should identify the prior staged reconstruction and describe the work completing the urethra. Medicare assigns a 90-day global period, including the day-before preoperative visit and 90 days of related postoperative care. When multiple procedures are performed in the same session, the highest-valued procedure is paid in full and other procedures are subject to the standard 50% multiple-procedure reduction. Modifier 50 is inappropriate for this code. Assistant-at-surgery payment may be available; co-surgeon payment requires supporting documentation, and team surgery is not permitted.

54318 billing questions
How is this distinguished from the first-stage operation?
Use this code for the planned later operation that completes the urethral reconstruction. The first-stage procedure prepares the tissue or creates the opening used for that later repair.
Can it be reported for a one-stage urethral reconstruction?
No. This code represents the second stage of a planned two-stage reconstruction; a one-stage reconstruction belongs to the applicable one-stage code.
What documentation supports reporting the second stage?
Document the prior staged reconstruction, the current operative work completing the urethra, and the relationship between the two stages.
Are related postoperative visits included?
Yes. The 90-day global period includes the day-before preoperative visit and 90 days of related postoperative care.
Can modifier 50 be used for bilateral work?
No. The CMS bilateral adjustment does not apply, and modifier 50 is inappropriate for this code.
How are other procedures in the same session handled?
The highest-valued procedure is paid in full; other procedures are subject to the standard multiple-procedure reduction. Assistant-at-surgery payment may be made, co-surgeons require supporting documentation, and 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.
