Epilepsy surgery
About 61567: Multiple subpial transections with electrocorticography
Reports multiple small cortical incisions with intraoperative electrocorticography to limit seizure spread while preserving function in selected epilepsy surgery cases.
This code describes multiple subpial transections performed during epilepsy surgery with intraoperative electrocorticography. The neurosurgeon makes a series of small incisions in the cerebral cortex to interrupt seizure spread while seeking to preserve important cortical function. A typical setting is surgery for medically refractory focal epilepsy when the seizure-generating region involves eloquent cortex, such as areas responsible for language or movement. The operative report should identify the cortical area treated and document the transections and electrocorticography performed.
Select this code when the documented operation is multiple subpial transections with electrocorticography, rather than removal of an epileptogenic focus or transections without electrocorticography. The 90-day global period includes 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% reduction. Modifier 50 is inappropriate for this service. Assistant-at-surgery payment may be allowed; co-surgeon payment requires supporting documentation, and team surgery is not permitted.

61567 billing questions
How does this differ from 61566?
Both codes describe multiple subpial transections; 61567 is the choice when electrocorticography is performed, while 61566 describes the service without it.
Is electrocorticography part of the code selection?
Yes. The distinction between 61567 and its sibling 61566 is whether electrocorticography is performed. The operative documentation should support that distinction.
Should modifier 50 be used for transections on both sides?
No. CMS identifies bilateral adjustment as inappropriate for this code because of the descriptor or anatomy.
What postoperative care is included in the global period?
The 90-day global includes the day-before preoperative visit and 90 days of related postoperative care.
Can an assistant or co-surgeon be reported?
Assistant-at-surgery payment may be allowed. Co-surgeon payment requires supporting documentation; team surgery is not permitted.
What happens when another procedure is performed in the same session?
The highest-valued procedure is paid in full, and other procedures are subject to the standard multiple procedure reduction.
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.
