Otolaryngology procedure
About 0583T: Tympanostomy with automated tube delivery
Reports tympanostomy tube insertion using an automated delivery system, commonly for patients with recurrent middle-ear effusion or ear infections.
An otolaryngologist uses an automated tube delivery system to create an opening in the tympanic membrane and place a ventilating tube. The procedure is used to ventilate the middle ear, commonly for recurrent otitis media or persistent middle-ear fluid. It may be performed in an office or procedure setting, including for patients who can undergo the procedure without a conventional operating-room approach.
Report 0583T for the tympanostomy performed with the automated delivery system, rather than for routine tube placement using another method. Document the treated ear or ears, the indication, and use of the automated system. CMS assigns a 0-day global period, so same-day preoperative and postoperative care is included. For bilateral treatment, modifier 50 is paid at 150%. When related endoscopies are performed together, endoscopy-family pricing applies. An assistant at surgery may be paid; co-surgeons and team surgery are not permitted.

0583T billing questions
When should 0583T be selected instead of 69433 or 69436?
Use 0583T when the tympanostomy tube is placed with an automated tube delivery system. Codes 69433 and 69436 describe tube placement under local or general anesthesia, respectively, without specifying that automated system.
How is bilateral treatment reported?
Report bilateral treatment with modifier 50. CMS pays the bilateral procedure at 150%.
What documentation supports 0583T?
Document the clinical reason for tube placement, the ear treated, and that the automated tube delivery system was used. For bilateral treatment, identify both ears.
Is same-day follow-up included?
Yes. The code has a 0-day global period, which includes same-day preoperative and postoperative care.
Can an assistant or co-surgeon be reported?
An assistant at surgery may be paid. CMS does not permit co-surgeons or team surgery for this code.
What happens when related endoscopies are performed in the same session?
CMS applies endoscopy-family pricing when related endoscopies are performed together. The claim should reflect the procedures actually performed.
