Medicare allowed amount for participating (non-QP) physicians, before deductible, coinsurance and claim adjustments. Not a patient’s bill or a hospital charge.

What 28107 covers

A foot-and-ankle orthopedic surgeon or podiatric surgeon removes or curettes a bone cyst or benign tumor in a tarsal or metatarsal bone and uses donor bone material to fill the resulting defect. The service is generally performed in an operating room or other surgical facility. The code is specific to these foot bones; a lesion in the talus or calcaneus belongs to a different code group.

Select this code when the operative report identifies the tarsal or metatarsal bone treated, the lesion removal or curettage, and use of an allograft. The grafting work is represented in the service, so do not separately report a graft procedure for that same defect. CMS assigns a 90-day global period, including the day-before preoperative visit and related postoperative care during the following 90 days. 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. Modifier 50 is inappropriate. An assistant at surgery may be paid; co-surgeons and team surgery are not permitted.
