Breast surgery

About 19307: Modified radical breast mastectomy

Reports breast removal for cancer with axillary lymph node dissection, typically when the operation includes both breast tissue and regional nodal surgery.

A surgeon removes breast tissue and performs an axillary lymph node dissection, usually as treatment for breast cancer. The procedure is generally performed in a hospital operating room. The modified radical approach removes the breast and axillary nodes while preserving the pectoral muscles; the nodal dissection is part of this operation, not a separate service for the same work.

Report the code when the operative record supports both breast removal and axillary node dissection, rather than a simple mastectomy or partial breast removal. Document the side and the extent of the operation. Medicare assigns a 90-day global period, including the day-before preoperative visit and related postoperative care during the 90 days after surgery. For bilateral surgery, modifier 50 is paid at 150%. When multiple procedures occur in one session, the highest-valued procedure is paid in full and the others at 50%. An assistant at surgery may be paid; co-surgeon payment requires supporting documentation, and team surgery is not permitted.

19307 billing questions

How does this differ from a simple mastectomy?

This code includes axillary lymph node dissection along with breast removal. A simple mastectomy does not include that nodal operation.

Can the axillary dissection be reported separately?

The axillary lymph node dissection is included in this operation. Do not separately report the same nodal work as though it were a separate procedure.

What supports reporting this code instead of partial mastectomy with node removal?

The operative report should show removal of the breast, not breast-conserving excision, together with axillary lymph node dissection.

How is bilateral surgery reported?

Use modifier 50 for bilateral surgery. CMS pays bilateral procedures at 150%.

What postoperative care is included?

The 90-day global period includes the day-before preoperative visit and related postoperative care for 90 days after surgery.

Can an assistant or co-surgeon be reported?

An assistant at surgery may be paid. Co-surgeon payment requires supporting documentation; team surgery is not permitted.
