Orthopedic surgery
About 27110: Iliopsoas transfer to greater trochanter
Reports surgical rerouting of the iliopsoas to the greater trochanter, typically to address hip muscle imbalance or instability in neuromuscular conditions.
An orthopedic surgeon releases the iliopsoas from its usual attachment and reroutes it to the greater trochanter to change its action on the hip. The operation is most often considered for selected patients with neuromuscular hip imbalance, such as children with cerebral palsy, when the surgeon seeks to improve hip stability or muscle balance. It is performed in an operating room, generally as an open procedure; the operative report should identify the side, original attachment, new attachment, and reason for the transfer.
Report this code when the documented operation transfers the iliopsoas to the greater trochanter, rather than simply releasing the tendon or attaching it at a different femoral site. Medicare assigns a 90-day global period, including the day-before preoperative visit and related postoperative care during that period. 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. For bilateral surgery, modifier 50 is paid at 150%. Assistant-at-surgery payment may be made; co-surgeon payment requires supporting documentation, and team surgery is not permitted.

27110 billing questions
How is this code distinguished from 27111?
This code describes transfer of the iliopsoas to the greater trochanter. Code 27111 describes a different iliopsoas transfer site; verify the documented attachment before choosing between them.
Can an iliopsoas release be reported as this transfer?
No. A release or tenotomy does not reroute and secure the muscle at the greater trochanter; code the documented procedure performed.
What documentation supports reporting this code?
The operative report should establish the side, iliopsoas mobilization and rerouting, greater-trochanter attachment, and clinical reason for the transfer.
How is bilateral surgery reported?
Use modifier 50 for a bilateral procedure; CMS pays the bilateral service at 150%.
Are assistant or co-surgeon services payable?
Assistant-at-surgery payment may be made. Co-surgeon payment requires supporting documentation, while team surgery is not permitted for this code.
What postoperative care is included?
The 90-day global period includes the day-before preoperative visit and 90 days of related postoperative care.
