About 45108: Anorectal muscle myomectomy

Surgical removal of a segment of anorectal muscle, reported for selected outlet-obstruction conditions such as Hirschsprung disease.

Anorectal myomectomy removes a portion of muscle in the anorectal wall. A colorectal or pediatric surgeon may perform it for selected patients with impaired outlet relaxation, including patients with Hirschsprung disease. This is a specialized muscle procedure, not a diagnostic rectal biopsy or removal of a rectal tumor, and it is generally performed in an operating room.

Report the procedure when the operative documentation supports removal of anorectal muscle for the patient’s condition; the report should identify the site, extent, and indication. Medicare treats it as major surgery with a 90-day global period, including the day-before preoperative visit and related postoperative care during that period. When other procedures are performed in the same session, the highest-valued procedure is paid in full and the others at 50%. Modifier 50 is inappropriate. Assistant-at-surgery payment is barred by statutory restriction; co-surgeon payment requires supporting documentation, and team surgery is not permitted.

45108 billing questions

How is this different from a rectal biopsy?

A biopsy obtains tissue for diagnosis. Anorectal myomectomy removes a portion of anorectal muscle as a therapeutic operation.

Can a rectal tumor excision be reported instead?

No. Tumor excision codes describe removal of a rectal lesion; this code describes removal of anorectal muscle for a different clinical purpose.

Does the procedure have a 90-day global period?

Yes. The day-before preoperative visit and related postoperative care for 90 days are included in the global period.

How are other procedures in the same session paid?

The highest-valued procedure is paid in full, and other procedures subject to the standard multiple-procedure rule are paid at 50%.

Can an assistant or co-surgeon be reported?

Assistant-at-surgery payment is barred by statutory restriction. Co-surgeon payment requires supporting documentation; team surgery is not permitted.
