0701T 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 across JN, most recently effective Jan 1, 2022. 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.

CMS indicators that apply to 0701T: GLOB DAYS ZZZ (add-on code) · PCTC 1 (splits into professional and technical) · BILAT SURG 3 (both sides paid at 100%).
Add-on code
GLOB DAYS
ZZZ
This code is always billed alongside another service and carries no follow-up period of its own. The primary procedure's global period governs; this indicator does not determine whether either line is payable.
Splits into professional and technical
PCTC
1
This procedure splits into a professional component (modifier 26) and a technical component (modifier TC), each separately payable.
Both sides paid at 100%
BILAT SURG
3
No special bilateral adjustment applies here—each side is paid at 100% of the fee schedule amount, subject to the usual multiple-procedure rules for other services billed the same day.
Why would a Medicare claim for 0701T 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
- 0701T splits into a professional component (modifier 26) and a technical component (modifier TC)—a claim for only one part needs that modifier to price correctly. See billing policy
- Assistant at surgery: restricted without documentation. See billing policy
- Co-surgeons: not permitted. See billing policy
- Team surgery: not permitted. 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.

Reconciling a contractor-priced payment for 0701T Copy link
What to check (5)
There is no national allowed amount for 0701T, 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.
- 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.
- Confirm which component the line carried before comparing anything: the same code prices three ways—globally, as a professional component with modifier 26, and as a technical component with modifier TC.
- Reconcile this line together with the primary procedure on the same claim—it is an add-on that is never billed alone and carries no global period of its own.
- Confirm both sides were priced at 100%: this procedure takes no bilateral adjustment, though anything else billed the same day may still rank under the multiple-procedure rule.
- 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.
