Understanding foot amputation coding begins with a thorough review of foot anatomy. The foot is made up of bone groups: Each of those bones are connected by a network of joints with their own special acronym language.
Some common examples include: 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.

Each body part has a high (proximal), mid (middle) and low (distal) area.
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).

Major amputations are commonly below-knee- or above-knee amputations. Common partial foot amputations include the Chopart, Lisfranc, and ray amputations. Common forms of ankle disarticulations include Pyrogoff, Boyd, and Syme amputations.
Common types of amputation involve:Above-knee amputation, removing part of the thigh, knee, shin, foot and toes.Below-knee amputation, removing the lower leg, foot and toes.Arm amputation.Hand amputation.Finger amputation.Foot amputation, removing part of the foot.Toe amputation.

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.
