Gynecologic surgery

About 58920: Partial ovarian tissue removal

Reports surgical removal of part of an ovary while ovarian tissue remains, rather than cyst-only excision or removal of the entire ovary.

A gynecologic surgeon removes a segment of ovarian tissue while leaving some of the ovary in place. The operation may be performed to excise a focal area or as a tissue-sparing ovarian procedure. The operative report should identify the ovary or ovaries treated, the amount and type of tissue removed, and what ovarian tissue remained. This distinguishes partial ovarian removal from taking a biopsy, removing only a cyst, or removing an entire ovary.

Report the service for partial ovarian tissue excision, whether one or both ovaries are treated; CMS pricing already accounts for bilateral work, so modifier 50 does not increase payment. The major-surgery global period includes the day-before preoperative visit and 90 days of related postoperative care. When multiple procedures occur in the same session, the highest-valued procedure is paid in full and other procedures are subject to the standard 50% multiple-procedure reduction. Assistant-at-surgery services may be paid; co-surgeons require supporting documentation, and team surgery is not permitted.

58920 billing questions

How is partial ovarian removal different from ovarian cystectomy?

This code describes removal of ovarian tissue itself. For an operation that removes a cyst while preserving the surrounding ovary, consider 58925.

Should modifier 50 be added when both ovaries are treated?

CMS pricing for this code already accounts for bilateral treatment. Modifier 50 does not increase payment.

What should the operative note document?

Document which ovary or ovaries were treated, the ovarian tissue removed, and the tissue that remained. The details should support partial ovarian removal rather than biopsy, cyst-only excision, or complete removal.

Is routine postoperative care separately reported?

Related postoperative care during the 90-day global period is included. The global period also includes the day-before preoperative visit.

How are other procedures in the same session paid?

Under the standard multiple-procedure reduction, the highest-valued procedure is paid in full and other procedures are subject to a 50% reduction.

Can an assistant or co-surgeon be reported?

Assistant-at-surgery services may be paid. Co-surgeons are paid only with supporting documentation; team surgery is not permitted.
