Ophthalmic imaging
About 92287: Anterior segment fluorescein angiography
Captures and interprets fluorescein angiographic images of the eye’s anterior segment to assess abnormal blood flow, leakage, or vascular changes.
An ophthalmic imaging service that records fluorescein dye passage through vessels in the front of the eye. Ophthalmology practices may use it to evaluate findings such as iris neovascularization or abnormal vascular patterns involving the conjunctiva or other anterior structures. Trained imaging staff typically acquire the images, while an ophthalmologist or other qualified clinician interprets them and documents the findings. The service is distinct from imaging directed at the retina or from specular microscopy of the corneal endothelium.
Report the code when anterior-segment fluorescein angiographic imaging and its interpretation are performed. Documentation should identify the clinical reason, the eye or eyes examined, and the image findings supporting the interpretation. CMS prices the code as bilateral, so reporting both eyes does not increase payment through modifier 50. The global service includes the technical work and interpretation; modifier 26 identifies the professional interpretation, and modifier TC identifies the technical service when those portions are billed separately.

92287 billing questions
How is this different from 92286?
This service uses fluorescein angiographic imaging to assess anterior-segment vascular patterns. Code 92286 uses specular microscopy to examine corneal endothelial cells.
Can modifier 50 increase payment when both eyes are imaged?
No. CMS prices 92287 as bilateral, and modifier 50 does not increase payment.
When should modifier 26 or TC be used?
Use modifier 26 for the professional interpretation or modifier TC for the technical service when billing those portions separately. Without either modifier, the code represents the global service.
What documentation supports reporting 92287?
Record the clinical indication, which eye or eyes were imaged, and the angiographic findings and interpretation. The documentation should show that the study evaluated the anterior segment.
Is this the correct code for retinal fluorescein angiography?
No. Code 92287 is for anterior-segment imaging; code 92235 is used for fluorescein angiography directed at the retina.
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.
