Ophthalmology procedure

About 67145: Prophylactic retinal laser treatment

Ophthalmologists use this laser session to treat retinal breaks or selected peripheral lesions before they progress to retinal detachment.

An ophthalmologist, often a retina specialist, uses focused laser photocoagulation to create an adhesion around a retinal break or selected peripheral retinal lesion judged to put the eye at risk for detachment. The intent is preventive: the service treats the vulnerable area before a retinal detachment requires repair. It is commonly performed in an office with retinal visualization, although facility settings are also used.

Report 67145 for the prophylactic laser treatment session, not for repair of an established detached retina. Documentation should identify the treated eye, break or lesion, why it warrants prophylaxis, and the laser treatment performed. CMS assigns a 10-day global period, so related postoperative visits during that period are included. When multiple procedures are performed in one session, the highest-valued procedure is paid in full and other procedures are subject to the standard 50% reduction. For bilateral treatment, modifier 50 is paid at 150%. Medicare does not pay an assistant at surgery for this service; co-surgeons and team surgery are not permitted.
