About 30620: Intranasal lining reconstruction with graft
Reconstructs a defect in the nasal lining with dermatoplasty and graft tissue, including graft procurement, when intranasal lining repair is performed.
This operation rebuilds the lining of the nasal septum or another intranasal surface with dermatoplasty and graft tissue. The surgeon prepares the recipient area, obtains the graft as part of the operation, and places it to cover the defect. Otolaryngologists and other surgeons with appropriate nasal reconstructive expertise typically perform it in an operating room for a septal or other intranasal lining defect. The operative report should identify the reconstructed site and describe the graft and repair performed.
Report 30620 for the intranasal dermatoplasty service, rather than for a septal correction or a different nasal repair alone. Document the defect, recipient site, graft use, and operative work. CMS assigns a 90-day global period, including 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 others are subject to the standard 50% multiple procedure reduction. Modifier 50 is inappropriate. CMS does not pay an assistant at surgery; co-surgeons and team surgery are not permitted.

30620 billing questions
How does 30620 differ from 30630?
30620 describes intranasal dermatoplasty using graft tissue. For a septal perforation repair, select the code that matches the repair actually performed and documented; 30630 identifies nasal septal perforation repair.
Is graft procurement separately reported?
Graft procurement is included in 30620. The operative note should support the graft and intranasal reconstruction performed.
Should modifier 50 be used for both sides?
No. CMS identifies bilateral adjustment as inappropriate for this code, so do not append modifier 50.
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 surgeon or co-surgeon be paid?
CMS lists a statutory restriction on assistant-at-surgery payment for this code. Co-surgeons and team surgery are not permitted.
