About 54340: Simple repair of complicated hypospadias
Reports the simple service level within the complicated hypospadias repair family when a urologist reconstructs the urethral opening and penile anatomy.
Code 54340 identifies the simple level within the complicated-repair group for hypospadias. A urologist uses it for operative reconstruction of the urethral opening and penile urethra in a patient with congenital hypospadias when the documented work fits this level rather than a more extensive repair. These procedures are commonly performed in an operating room, including for pediatric patients, though the code is not limited to children.
Select the code from the operative report’s description of the reconstruction and its extent, not from the diagnosis alone. Document the anatomy addressed, the repair performed, and the reason the work meets this complicated-repair category. The service has a 90-day global period, including the day-before preoperative visit and related postoperative care. When multiple procedures occur in the same session, the highest-valued procedure is paid in full and other procedures are subject to the standard 50% reduction. Assistant-at-surgery payment may be made; co-surgeon payment requires supporting documentation, and team surgery is not permitted. Modifier 50 is inappropriate for this code.

54340 billing questions
How is 54340 distinguished from 54344 or 54348?
These codes distinguish levels of work within complicated hypospadias repair. Use the code that matches the operative technique and extent documented; 54344 and 54348 describe more specific urethral mobilization or chordee-related work.
Does the 90-day global period include routine postoperative visits?
Yes. The global period includes the day-before preoperative visit and 90 days of related postoperative care.
Can modifier 50 be used for a bilateral repair?
No. CMS identifies bilateral adjustment as inappropriate for this code.
Can an assistant or co-surgeon be reported?
Assistant-at-surgery payment may be made. Co-surgeon payment requires supporting documentation, and team surgery is not permitted.
How are other procedures in the same session paid?
The highest-valued procedure is paid in full, and other procedures performed in that session are subject to the standard multiple-procedure reduction.
