Medicare sets this price locally

0627T has no single national Physician Fee Schedule amount. Use the ZIP, modifier, setting, and participation fields above to match it to a Medicare locality and the contractor amount we have on file.

Your practical estimate will appear here

We hold files from First_coast and Novitas across JH and JL and JN, most recently effective Jan 1, 2026. A missing locality means our contractor coverage is incomplete—not that Medicare pays $0.

This is the published amount for this code—not necessarily the entire visit or procedure. A hospital may bill a separate facility charge, and other services, drugs, or supplies can add to the total.

Why would a Medicare claim for 0627T be denied or paid less?

These come from CMS indicators on this page, not general billing advice.

  • Its status indicator is C (carrier-priced)—Your Medicare Administrative Contractor prices this code case by case, usually after reviewing documentation. See status indicators
  • 109 codes form NCCI pairs with 0627T carrying modifier indicator 0—no NCCI-associated modifier bypasses the edit, so billed together on the same date of service, a line of the pair denies. See billing together
  • 154 codes pair with 0627T under modifier indicator 1—separately payable only when an NCCI-associated modifier (59, or a more specific XE, XS, XP, or XU) is clinically appropriate and the documentation supports a distinct service; without one, a line of the pair denies. See billing together
  • More than 1 unit per patient per date of service exceeds 0627T's Medically Unlikely Edit (MUE) limit. See billing together
  • Assistant at surgery: restricted without documentation. See billing policy
  • Co-surgeons: not permitted. See billing policy
  • Team surgery: not permitted. See billing policy
  • Multiple procedures: standard reduction applies. See billing policy

Payer-specific coverage and documentation rules live outside these files, so a claim that clears every check here can still be denied on other grounds.

Which billing rules and modifiers apply? Copy link

Global period: what 0627T's fee already covers Copy link

YYY Contractor decides

Your Medicare Administrative Contractor decides whether a global period applies and sets its length when it prices the code. The result is 0, 10, or 90 days.

Billing policy Copy link

These billing-policy indicators explain how 0627T is treated. They apply whether the code is nationally priced or carrier-priced: a restriction like "bilateral not allowed" still matters on a carrier-priced code.

Policy Value What it means
Bilateral surgery 2 RVUs already reflect bilateral pricing. The published RVUs already account for a bilateral procedure—no additional bilateral adjustment applies on top of the fee schedule amount.
Assistant at surgery 0 Restricted without documentation. Payment for an assistant at surgery is restricted for this procedure unless supporting documentation establishes medical necessity.
Co-surgeons 0 Not permitted. Medicare does not recognize co-surgeons (modifier 62) for this procedure.
Team surgery 0 Not permitted. Medicare does not recognize a surgical team (modifier 66) for this procedure.
Multiple procedures 2 Standard reduction applies. When billed with other procedures on the same date, the highest-valued one is paid at 100% and the next four at 50% each.
Professional/technical split 0 No PC/TC split. This is a physician service code; the professional/technical split does not apply, and the code is billed as a single service.

Not separately payable with 0627T on the same date of service—no modifier bypasses the edit (modifier indicator 0)

01937 01937 denies

Showing 3 of 109.

Separately payable with 0627T only when an NCCI-associated modifier is appropriate and documented (modifier indicator 1)

0708T 0708T denies
0709T 0709T denies
0903T 0903T denies

Showing 3 of 154.

Modifier 59 and the X modifiers are not a universal bypass—CMS expects the most specific applicable modifier, and which one that is depends on the pair and the documented circumstances.

Reconciling a contractor-priced payment for 0627T Copy link

There is no national allowed amount for 0627T, so every reconciliation of this line runs against the MAC fee schedule that was in force for the date of service rather than against a national baseline.

What to check

  • Compare the paid amount against the MAC fee schedule in force for the date of service; there is no national allowed amount here to reconcile against.
  • Ask the MAC which global period it assigned: the contractor sets the follow-up window for this code, so whether a post-operative visit should have paid depends on the contractor that priced it.
  • Rank the claim’s procedure lines before calling a reduced line short-paid—under the standard multiple-procedure rule only the highest-valued one prices in full.
  • Check whether a second side was billed separately—the published RVUs already price both sides, so there is no additional amount behind that line.
  • Reprice the line against the release, locality, setting, modifier and participation status that applied to the date of service before treating any difference as an underpayment.

Contractor amounts come from the MAC-published schedules and effective dates shown above. The PFS file shows this code is priced by the contractor. Past releases are never edited, so these sources stay valid after CMS publishes a newer one. Our methodology explains sourcing, parsing, versioning, and how we cross-check claims before we publish them.
