Obstetric surgery
Reports abdominal access to the uterus to remove pregnancy-related contents, including in selected cases involving hydatidiform mole or abortion.
This service involves opening the uterus through an abdominal incision to remove pregnancy-related contents. An obstetrician-gynecologist typically performs it in an operating room when abdominal uterine access is the selected approach, including certain cases involving hydatidiform mole or abortion. It is distinct from a cesarean birth and from uterine surgery to remove fibroids.
Report the service when the operative record supports abdominal hysterotomy and removal of the indicated contents. Documentation should identify the clinical indication, abdominal approach, and work performed. The code has a 90-day global period, including the day-before preoperative visit and 90 days of related postoperative care. For multiple procedures in the same session, the highest-valued procedure is paid in full and other procedures are subject to the standard 50% reduction. Modifier 50 is inappropriate. An assistant at surgery may be paid; co-surgeon payment requires supporting documentation, and team surgery is not permitted.
