Gynecologic surgery
About 58150: Total abdominal hysterectomy
Reports open abdominal removal of the uterus and cervix, with the tubes and ovaries either retained or removed during the same operation.
A gynecologic surgeon removes the uterine body and cervix through an abdominal incision. The fallopian tubes and ovaries may be left in place or removed during the operation; either choice is included in this service. It is used for conditions such as symptomatic fibroids or adenomyosis when abdominal removal is selected, and is typically performed in a hospital or other surgical facility.
Choose the code from the documented route and structures removed: the abdominal approach and removal of the cervix distinguish it from a subtotal hysterectomy or a vaginal or laparoscopic procedure. The operative report should identify the approach, the uterus and cervix removed, and any adnexal removal. Medicare assigns a 90-day global period, including the day-before preoperative visit and 90 days of related postoperative care. When multiple procedures occur in the same session, the highest-valued is paid in full and others at 50%. Modifier 50 is inappropriate. An assistant may be paid; co-surgeons require supporting documentation, and team surgery is not permitted.

58150 billing questions
How does this differ from 58180?
This service removes the cervix along with the uterine body. Code 58180 describes an abdominal subtotal hysterectomy in which the cervix is retained.
Are removal of the tubes or ovaries separately reported?
Removal of the fallopian tubes or ovaries during this hysterectomy is included, whether one or both are removed or retained.
Should modifier 50 be appended?
No. CMS identifies bilateral adjustment as inappropriate for this code because the procedure concerns a single midline organ.
What postoperative care is included?
The 90-day global period includes the day-before preoperative visit and 90 days of related postoperative care.
Can an assistant or co-surgeon be paid?
An assistant at surgery may be paid. Co-surgeon payment requires supporting documentation; team surgery is not permitted.
How are other procedures in the same session paid?
The highest-valued procedure is paid in full, and other procedures subject to the standard multiple procedure reduction are paid at 50%.
