The QIC also cited an American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons bulletin advising that a reverse shoulder arthroplasty should be reported with 23472, as that code describes a total shoulder arthroplasty regardless of the technique used.
A reverse total shoulder replacement is a special type of shoulder surgery. During the surgery, your surgeon removes the damaged parts of the shoulder and replaces them with artificial parts. The shoulder joint is made up of the upper arm bone (humerus) and the shoulder blade (scapula).
In a standard shoulder replacement, the ball portion of the shoulder (the humeral head) is replaced by a metal ball and the socket is replaced by a plastic piece (Figure 2). In the “reverse prosthesis” the shoulder joint is still replaced with parts or components made out of metal and plastic (Figure 3).

Arthroplasty is a surgical procedure to restore the function of a joint. A joint can be restored by resurfacing the bones. An artificial joint (called a prosthesis) may also be used. Various types of arthritis may affect the joints.
A reverse shoulder replacement is designed to make the deltoid muscle—the large shoulder muscle—more efficient. 2 In patients with rotator cuff tear arthropathy, the rotator cuff doesn't work normally, and the deltoid can help make up for this deficiency.Jul 18, 2020
A solution, which allows both pain relief and improved function, is the Reverse Shoulder Replacement. This type of replacement corrects the arthritis by replacing the worn out joint surfaces with an artificial joint made of metal (cobalt chrome) and plastic (polyethylene).
BCBS of IL (HCSC) medical policy for reverse shoulder arthoplasty (medical policy SUR705.031) states to bill C PT code 23929, ICD-9 codes 716.11, 996.40-996.49, and ICD-9 procedure code 81.80.
A. CPT will, at times, have one code that covers a particular procedure such as arthroplasty. Different techniques are then developed to either enhance or strengthen the procedure. But when it comes to coding, the procedure is still considered an arthroplasty.
