Breast surgery
About 19325: Breast augmentation with implant placement
Breast augmentation with an implant increases breast volume; report it for implant placement performed for augmentation rather than postmastectomy reconstruction.
This operation increases breast volume by placing a prosthetic implant in the breast. A plastic surgeon typically performs it in a hospital outpatient department or ambulatory surgery center for a patient seeking enlargement of the breast. It is distinct from implant placement as part of breast reconstruction after mastectomy.
Report the service when the operative record supports implant placement for augmentation, rather than reconstruction or implant removal. CMS assigns a 90-day global period: the day-before preoperative visit and 90 days of related postoperative care are included. When other procedures are performed in the same session, the highest-valued procedure is paid in full and the others are subject to the standard multiple procedure reduction. For bilateral augmentation reported with modifier 50, CMS pays at 150%. Assistant-at-surgery payment requires documented medical necessity; co-surgeons and team surgery are not permitted.

19325 billing questions
How is this different from implant placement after mastectomy?
This code is for implant placement to enlarge the breast. Codes 19340 and 19342 describe implant placement in breast reconstruction, distinguished by whether placement occurs at the mastectomy or later.
Can a breast lift be reported in the same session?
Code 19316 may be reported when a breast lift is also performed and documented as a separate service. The operative note should describe both the implant augmentation and the lift.
How should bilateral augmentation be reported?
Use modifier 50 for a bilateral procedure. CMS pays bilateral reporting at 150%.
What happens when another procedure is performed during the same session?
Under the standard multiple procedure reduction, CMS pays the highest-valued procedure in full and pays the other procedure or procedures at 50%.
What documentation supports assistant-at-surgery payment?
The record must document the medical necessity of the assistant's participation. CMS does not permit co-surgeons or team surgery for this code.
Which postoperative services are included?
The 90-day global period includes the day-before preoperative visit and 90 days of related postoperative care.
