Pain management
About 62360: Nonprogrammable spinal infusion pump implantation
Report this service for implantation or replacement of a nonprogrammable pump that delivers medication into the intrathecal or epidural space.
A surgeon, commonly a neurosurgeon or pain specialist, implants or replaces a nonprogrammable pump used for long-term medication delivery into the intrathecal or epidural space. The pump is generally placed beneath the skin and connected to a catheter that delivers medication near the spinal cord. This service is distinct from placing or replacing the catheter alone and is commonly performed in a facility setting for patients needing ongoing medication infusion.
Select this code when the implanted or replacement device is nonprogrammable; documentation should identify the device and support the pump procedure performed. Related postoperative visits are included for 10 days. When multiple procedures are performed in the same session, the highest-valued procedure is paid in full and other procedures are subject to the standard 50% multiple-procedure reduction. Modifier 50 is inappropriate. Assistant-at-surgery payment requires documented medical necessity; co-surgeon payment requires supporting documentation, and team surgery is not permitted.

62360 billing questions
How does 62360 differ from 62361 or 62362?
62360 is for implantation or replacement of a nonprogrammable pump. Use the applicable sibling code when the implanted pump is programmable.

Pump implantation is distinct from implantation of the spinal catheter. When a catheter is separately placed, consider the catheter code based on the service performed and the applicable coding rules.

How are other procedures in the same session paid?
The highest-valued procedure is paid in full; other procedures in that session are subject to the standard multiple-procedure reduction.
What documentation supports reporting 62360?
Document that the service was implantation or replacement of a nonprogrammable infusion pump, along with the device and the procedure performed. Documentation for assistant-at-surgery or co-surgeon services must support the applicable payment criteria.
