About 28062: Radical plantar fascia excision
Reports broad excision of plantar fascia, commonly for symptomatic plantar fibromatosis when the operation removes substantially more tissue than a partial fasciectomy.
Code 28062 represents a broad, radical excision of plantar fascia rather than a limited partial fasciectomy. A common indication is symptomatic plantar fibromatosis, in which fibrous nodules develop in the plantar aponeurosis; the surgeon removes a substantial diseased fascial segment. An orthopedic foot-and-ankle surgeon or podiatric surgeon typically performs the operation in a surgical setting for extensive or persistent fascial disease.
Select the code from the operative work and the extent of fascia removed, not from the diagnosis alone. The operative report should identify the plantar fascia as the target and describe the tissue removed and the extent of excision. CMS classifies this as major surgery: the day-before preoperative visit and 90 days of related postoperative care are included. When multiple procedures occur in the same session, the highest-valued is paid in full and other procedures at 50%. Bilateral reporting with modifier 50 is paid at 150%. Assistant-at-surgery payment is restricted; co-surgeons require supporting documentation, and team surgery is not permitted.
