Rhinoplasty
About 30462: Secondary rhinoplasty with septal repair
Report 30462 for secondary correction of a nasal deformity when the revision includes substantial septal repair as part of the nasal reconstruction.
This code represents a secondary rhinoplasty for a nasal deformity that includes major work on the septum. It may be performed by an otolaryngologist, facial plastic surgeon, or plastic surgeon when a prior nasal operation or injury has left structural deformity requiring revision. The operative work addresses the nasal framework and septum together; it is not simply a limited cosmetic adjustment or isolated septal procedure.
Select the code from the documented scope of the revision, especially the major septal repair, rather than from the patient's reason for seeking care alone. The operative report should describe the preexisting deformity, prior surgery when relevant, structures revised, and the septal reconstruction performed. CMS assigns a 90-day global period, including the day-before preoperative visit and 90 days of related postoperative care. For multiple procedures in one session, the highest-valued procedure is paid in full and others at 50%. Modifier 50 is inappropriate. Assistant-at-surgery and co-surgeon payment are permitted; team surgery is not.

30462 billing questions
How is 30462 different from 30460?
Both address secondary nasal deformity. Choose 30462 when the revision includes major septal repair; 30460 represents secondary deformity correction without that major septal work.
Can a separate septal repair be reported with 30462?
Major septal repair included in the revision is part of 30462, not a separate service. The documentation must support any distinct additional procedure reported separately.
Should modifier 50 be appended for work on both sides of the nose?
No. CMS identifies bilateral adjustment as inappropriate for this code, even when the operative work involves paired nasal structures.
How does the multiple-procedure reduction affect 30462?
When multiple procedures are performed in the same session, the highest-valued procedure is paid in full and other procedures are paid at 50% under the standard reduction.
What global care is included?
The 90-day global period includes the day-before preoperative visit and 90 days of related postoperative care.
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.
