About 62365: Removal of implanted spinal infusion pump
Report this service for operative removal of an implanted spinal infusion pump, such as for infection, malfunction, or discontinuation of intrathecal therapy.
This service covers surgically taking out an implanted pump that delivers medication into the spinal canal, commonly as part of an intrathecal drug-delivery system. A neurosurgeon or pain specialist may remove the pump for infection, erosion, malfunction, or when therapy is no longer needed. Pump replacement may occur during the same operation. The service is commonly performed in a facility setting; it is distinct from removing only the spinal canal catheter.
Select the code when the implanted pump itself is removed. The operative report should identify the pump, the reason for removal, and whether the catheter was also removed or a replacement pump was implanted. Related postoperative visits are included for 10 days. 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 requires documentation of medical necessity; co-surgeons and team surgery are not permitted.

62365 billing questions
When should this code be used instead of 62355?
Use 62365 when the implanted spinal infusion pump is removed. Code 62355 describes removal of the spinal canal catheter, which may be a separate service if the catheter is also taken out.
Can catheter removal be reported with pump removal?
It may be separately reported when the spinal canal catheter is also removed during the operation. Document the catheter removal separately from the pump explant.
Can this code be reported when a replacement pump is implanted?
Yes. When a new pump is implanted in the same session, report the removal and the applicable implantation service; the multiple-procedure payment rule may affect payment.
Should modifier 50 be appended?
No. CMS identifies bilateral adjustment as inappropriate for this service; report the pump removal without modifier 50.
What documentation supports the service?
The operative report should establish that the implanted pump was removed and state the clinical reason, such as infection, malfunction, or discontinued therapy. Record separately whether the catheter was removed or a replacement pump was implanted.
How are assistant and co-surgeon services handled?
Assistant-at-surgery payment requires documentation of medical necessity. Co-surgeons and team surgery are not permitted for this code.
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.
