# CPT 73620

> Medicare paid $25.74 for CPT 73620 in the office (non-facility) setting and $25.74 in a facility under the Q2 2015 Physician Fee Schedule, effective April 2015. These are the national allowed amounts before the ~2% sequestration cut and before locality (GPCI) adjustment. This price has been unchanged since Q1 2015, when it decreased 7.9%.

## What it is

A plain radiograph of the foot taken from two angles, typically a front-on and an angled or side projection. This is the shorter of the two standard foot X-ray codes: it captures enough to answer a focused question, such as whether an obvious fracture is present, but does not include the full set of projections used for a complete survey of the foot. The more thorough study, with three or more views, is coded separately.
