Plastic Surgery CPT Codes in the ASC Setting

Plastic surgery is a high-volume specialty in ambulatory surgery centers. Many reconstructive and skin procedures are short, scheduled, and outpatient, which makes them a natural fit for the ASC setting.

Most ASC plastic surgery work falls in the integumentary CPT family, roughly the 11000 to 19499 range, covering debridement, grafts, flaps, repairs, and breast procedures. Our dataset maps 405 ASC-relevant codes to this specialty. Examples include 19318 (breast reduction) and 11042 (subcutaneous tissue debridement, first 20 sq cm or less). Whether Medicare pays for a code in an ASC depends on the CMS addenda: Addendum AA codes are on the ASC Covered Procedures List, meaning Medicare pays them in an ASC, while Addendum EE codes are excluded. DataLily's procedure library tracks CPT-specific prior-authorization and documentation requirements for these codes.

Are plastic surgery procedures performed in an ASC?

Yes. Many reconstructive and skin procedures are short and scheduled and do not require an overnight stay, which makes them well suited to the ambulatory surgery center setting. Whether Medicare pays a specific code in an ASC depends on its CMS addendum status. Codes on Addendum AA are on the ASC Covered Procedures List, while Addendum EE codes are excluded from ASC payment. Always confirm the status of the exact code before scheduling.
