Urologic surgery

About 54328: Complex penile and urethral reconstruction

Reports complex operative reconstruction involving the penis and urethra, with code selection supported by the documented anatomy and surgical work.

This code represents complex reconstructive surgery involving penile and urethral anatomy, rather than a repair limited to one structure. A urologist typically performs the operation in a hospital or other surgical setting. The operative report should make clear the condition being corrected, the structures addressed, and the reconstructive steps performed. Hypospadias-related reconstruction may be part of this clinical context, but the code should be selected based on the actual procedure and its documented scope.

The code has 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 multiple-procedure reduction. Modifier 50 is inappropriate for this code. An assistant at surgery may be paid; co-surgeons require supporting documentation, and team surgery is not permitted. The operative note should distinguish this combined penile and urethral reconstruction from a procedure addressing only the urethra, a specific hypospadias repair, or a limited penile revision.

Both codes concern penile and urethral revision. Choose between them using the exact procedure performed and the operative details, not the abbreviated CMS label alone.

54328 billing questions

What documentation supports reporting this code?

Document the condition treated, the penile and urethral structures involved, and the reconstructive work performed. The operative report should establish why the procedure is more than an isolated urethral reconstruction or limited penile repair.

Can modifier 50 be used?

No. CMS identifies bilateral adjustment as inappropriate for this code.

How is another procedure in the same session handled?

Under the standard multiple-procedure rule, the highest-valued procedure is paid in full and other procedures are subject to a 50% reduction. The operative documentation should support each separately reported procedure.

Can an assistant or co-surgeon be reported?

An assistant at surgery may be paid. Co-surgeons are paid only when supporting documentation is provided; team surgery is not permitted.

What care is included in the global period?

The 90-day global period includes the day-before preoperative visit and 90 days of related postoperative care.
