About 67331: Complex strabismus surgery add-on
This add-on reports added complexity during strabismus surgery when prior eye surgery or restrictive myopathy affects one or more extraocular muscles.
An ophthalmologist reports this add-on with a primary strabismus procedure when prior eye surgery or restrictive myopathy, such as thyroid-related restriction, makes surgery on one or more extraocular muscles more complex. It represents added work during the muscle operation, not a separate postoperative examination. These cases are generally managed in an operating room, with the surgeon addressing the alignment problem and the effects of prior surgery or muscle restriction.
Report 67331 only with the primary procedure; it is paid within that procedure’s global period. The operative report should support the underlying strabismus procedure and document the prior eye surgery or restrictive myopathy affecting the surgical work. CMS lists bilateral reporting with modifier 50 as paid at 150%. The primary procedure identifies the muscle surgery performed; this add-on identifies the qualifying complexity.
