Gynecologic surgery
About 58700: Fallopian tube removal surgery
Reports surgical removal of part or all of one or both fallopian tubes, including procedures for ectopic pregnancy, disease, or sterilization.
A gynecologic surgeon removes part or all of a fallopian tube through an abdominal or pelvic operation. Typical situations include treating a tubal ectopic pregnancy or diseased tube, removing a hydrosalpinx, and permanent contraception. The code encompasses removal on one or both sides and is commonly performed in a facility operating room. When tube removal is part of a larger operation, report it separately only when the work is distinct and separately reportable rather than integral to that operation.
Document the side, extent of removal, indication, and operative work. CMS pricing is already bilateral, so modifier 50 does not increase payment. For same-session procedures, the highest-valued procedure is paid in full and other procedures are subject to the standard multiple-procedure reduction. The 90-day global period includes the day-before preoperative visit and 90 days of related postoperative care. Assistant-at-surgery payment may be made; co-surgeon payment requires supporting documentation, and team surgery is not permitted.

58700 billing questions
Does this code cover removal of one tube or both?
It covers complete or partial removal of one or both fallopian tubes. CMS pricing is already bilateral, and modifier 50 does not increase payment.
How is this different from 58720?
Use 58700 for removal of fallopian tube tissue without removal of an ovary. Code 58720 is the comparison when an ovary is removed along with tube tissue.
Can the tube removal be reported with a hysterectomy or another pelvic operation?
Report it separately only when the salpingectomy is distinct and separately reportable, rather than integral to the larger procedure. The operative report should describe the tube-removal work.
What documentation supports reporting this code?
Document the indication, side, whether removal was partial or complete, and the procedure performed. The operative report should make clear which tube tissue was removed.
How does the 90-day global period affect postoperative billing?
The day-before preoperative visit and 90 days of related postoperative care are included in the global period. Same-session procedures are subject to the standard multiple-procedure payment reduction.
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.
