Wrist fracture care
About 25680: Closed trans-scaphoid perilunate fracture-dislocation treatment
Reports closed reduction by manipulation of a perilunate wrist fracture-dislocation that passes through the scaphoid, with related fracture care included in the global period.
This service treats a carpal fracture-dislocation in which the scaphoid is fractured and the carpal bones are displaced around the lunate. The physician manipulates the wrist to restore alignment without surgically exposing the fracture, then immobilizes it. Orthopedic and hand surgeons commonly perform the reduction in a hospital or other procedural setting, often with imaging guidance.
Report this code when the documented injury pattern is a trans-scaphoid perilunate fracture-dislocation and the physician performs closed treatment with manipulation. The record should identify the fracture-dislocation, side, reduction performed, and resulting alignment; imaging and the treatment plan support the service. This major surgery code has a 90-day global period that includes the day-before preoperative visit and 90 days of related postoperative care. When multiple procedures are performed in the same session, the highest-valued procedure is paid in full and other procedures are subject to the standard multiple-procedure reduction. Modifier 50 applies to bilateral performance, with payment at 150%. Assistant-at-surgery payment requires documented medical necessity; co-surgeons and team surgery are not permitted.

25680 billing questions
How is this different from code 25685?
Code 25680 is for closed treatment with manipulation. Code 25685 is for open treatment of the trans-scaphoid perilunate fracture-dislocation.
Can this code be used for an isolated scaphoid fracture?
No. It describes the combined fracture-dislocation pattern involving the scaphoid and perilunate alignment. An isolated scaphoid fracture may fit a different treatment code, such as 25624 when closed treatment with manipulation is performed.
Is the reduction reported separately from the fracture treatment?
The manipulation is part of the closed fracture-dislocation treatment represented by this code. Related postoperative care falls within its 90-day global period.
What documentation supports reporting this code?
Document the trans-scaphoid perilunate fracture-dislocation, the affected side, the closed manipulation performed, and the reduction result. Imaging and the immobilization and follow-up plan can support the record.
How are bilateral cases and multiple procedures handled?
For bilateral performance, modifier 50 is paid at 150%. When multiple procedures occur in the same session, the highest-valued procedure is paid in full and the others are subject to the standard multiple-procedure reduction.
Can an assistant or co-surgeon be reported?
Assistant-at-surgery payment is allowed only when medical necessity is documented. Co-surgeons and team surgery are not permitted.
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.
