About 58611: Tubal interruption during abdominal surgery
Reports interruption of one or both fallopian tubes for permanent contraception when performed during cesarean delivery or another intra-abdominal operation.
This add-on captures interruption of one or both fallopian tubes for permanent contraception during a cesarean delivery or another intra-abdominal operation. The surgeon ligates or divides the tube during the same operative session; it is not a stand-alone sterilization procedure. A common setting is an operating room where the patient is already undergoing cesarean delivery and requests permanent contraception.
Report 58611 with the primary operation performed at the same session, such as an eligible cesarean delivery service. The operative note should identify the tubal interruption and establish that it was performed during the primary abdominal procedure. CMS treats 58611 as an add-on: it is billed only with a primary procedure and paid within that procedure’s global period. The documentation should distinguish the added sterilization service from the work of the primary operation.

58611 billing questions
When should 58611 be chosen instead of 58600?
Use 58611 when tubal interruption is performed during cesarean delivery or another intra-abdominal operation. Code 58600 describes a separate tubal procedure rather than this concurrent add-on service.
Can 58611 be billed by itself?
No. It is an add-on code and must be billed with the primary operation performed in the same session.
What documentation supports reporting 58611?
The operative report should document the tubal interruption for permanent contraception and show that it occurred during the cesarean delivery or other intra-abdominal operation.
How does CMS handle payment for 58611?
CMS pays this add-on within the global period of the primary procedure. It is not a stand-alone service.
How does 58611 differ from laparoscopic tubal codes 58670 and 58671?
Code 58611 is for tubal interruption performed during another intra-abdominal operation. Codes 58670 and 58671 describe laparoscopic tubal procedures, including cautery or occlusion, rather than this add-on circumstance.
