Peripheral nerve surgery
About 64766: Hip or thigh nerve neurotomy
Reports operative incision or division of a peripheral nerve in the hip or thigh to interrupt nerve transmission for a targeted clinical purpose.
This code describes an operation that incises or divides a peripheral nerve located in the hip or thigh, interrupting its nerve transmission. A surgeon performs the procedure when the treatment plan calls for intentional interruption of that nerve; the operative report should identify the nerve and explain the clinical reason for treating it. The code is specific to the nerve’s hip or thigh location, not simply the site of an incision or the patient’s symptoms.
Select this code when the documented procedure is nerve incision or division, rather than removal of a nerve lesion. The operative note should support the nerve treated, its location, the work performed, and the reason for the intervention. CMS assigns a 90-day global period, including the day-before preoperative visit and 90 days of related postoperative care. When multiple procedures are performed in one session, the highest-valued procedure is paid in full and other procedures are subject to the standard multiple procedure reduction. Bilateral reporting with modifier 50 is paid at 150%. Assistant-at-surgery payment may be made; co-surgeons and team surgery are not permitted.

64766 billing questions
How is this code distinguished from 64763?
Both CMS short descriptors identify incision of a hip or thigh nerve. Use the code whose full CPT descriptor and documented nerve procedure match the operation; the short descriptor alone does not distinguish the services.
Can nerve lesion removal be reported instead?
Not when the documented work is nerve incision or division. For a procedure that excises a sciatic nerve lesion, evaluate 64786 instead and ensure the operative report supports lesion removal.
What should the operative report document?
Identify the nerve and its hip or thigh location, describe the incision or division performed, and state the clinical purpose. Documentation should make clear that the work was nerve interruption rather than lesion excision.
How does the 90-day global period affect postoperative visits?
The day-before preoperative visit and 90 days of related postoperative care are included in the global period. Report a separate service only when applicable coding rules support it.
How is bilateral surgery reported?
For bilateral procedures, report modifier 50; CMS pays the bilateral procedure at 150%. The record should support treatment of the nerve on both sides.
May an assistant or co-surgeon be reported?
Assistant-at-surgery payment may be made for this procedure. Co-surgeons and team surgery are not permitted under the CMS rules provided.
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.
