About 28737: Revision of foot bones
Reports operative revision of foot bones to correct a problem involving a previously treated bone, rather than a primary foot-bone fusion.
CPT 28737 describes an operation to revise foot bones. It is generally performed by an orthopedic foot and ankle surgeon or podiatric surgeon in an operating room when prior treatment of a foot bone requires operative correction. The code is selected for the revision service itself; the specific bone, prior procedure, problem being corrected, and work performed should be clear in the operative report. Do not select it solely because the patient has had earlier foot surgery if the current operation is a different, separately defined procedure.
Medicare assigns a 90-day global period: the day-before preoperative visit and 90 days of related postoperative care are included. 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. Bilateral reporting with modifier 50 is paid at 150%. Assistant-at-surgery services may be paid; co-surgeon payment requires supporting documentation, and team surgery is not permitted. Record the revision indication and operative details, including the bone addressed and how the procedure corrected the problem.

28737 billing questions
How do I distinguish 28737 from a foot-bone arthrodesis code?
Use 28737 for the revision service when the operation revises foot bones. When the operative service is a defined fusion, select the applicable arthrodesis code, such as one for multiple or single midfoot joints.
What documentation supports reporting 28737?
The operative report should identify the bone or bones revised, the condition prompting revision, relevant prior treatment, and the corrective work performed.
Is postoperative care included in 28737?
Yes. The 90-day global period includes the day-before preoperative visit and 90 days of related postoperative care.
How are bilateral and same-session procedures handled?
Bilateral reporting with modifier 50 is paid at 150%. For multiple procedures in one session, the highest-valued procedure is paid in full and the others are subject to the standard 50% reduction.
Can an assistant or co-surgeon be reported?
Assistant-at-surgery services may be paid. Co-surgeons are paid only with supporting documentation; team surgery is not permitted.
