A hallux amputation is the partial or total removal of a person's big toe. Typically, you'd undergo a hallux amputation for one of several reasons. For example, you might have undergone trauma or injury or your toe might be infected.
The correct amputation code that should be billed for an amputation of both the toe and metatarsal bone is CPT 28810 (Amputation, metatarsal, with toe, single).
28810 osteotomy is made through the metatarsal (ultimately in this case). What may be throwing you off is that the doc performed the disarticulation at the MTP joint first (28820) and then afterwards performed the osteotomy through the MT (28820).
Transmetatarsal amputation (TMA) is a surgery to remove part of your foot. You may need a TMA if you have poor blood flow to your foot or a severe infection. A toe amputation is a surgery to remove one or more toes.
A minor amputation is where one or more toes are removed surgically and the affected tissue is removed (debrided). This is often due to a serious infection with the skin, tissues and bones of the toe/s and foot. If you don't have the operation you may become very unwell due to infection.
Forefoot amputations include toe amputations and transmetatarsal amputations as well as the resection of individual or several metatarsal bones with the toes being spared (Figure 1, line 1 to 5). Foot amputations are also carried out in the metatarsal and calcaneal regions.
ICD-10-PCS qualifiers for foot amputations refer to rays. A ray includes each metatarsal bone along with its attached phalanx. When an entire metatarsal bone is removed by disarticulating at the TMT joint (between the tarsal bone and metatarsal), it is referred to as a complete detachment. Cutting through a portion of the metatarsal bone using a bone saw is a partial detachment.
When was the last time you really thought about the marvel that is your foot? The human foot is composed of 26 bones, 33 joints, and what seems like endless tendons and ligaments. The number of body parts alone make coding podiatric procedures complex. And much like Paul Simon’s claim that there are 50 ways to leave your lover, there seems to also be 50 ways to amputate a foot.
There are three regions in the foot and amputations can occur anywhere along these bones. Forefoot: metatarsals and phalanges.
