Removal of a foreign body under local anaesthetic, including non-biodegradable long-acting subcutaneous medication implants. E542 adds outside hospital.
Billing rules
- Add E542 when performed outside hospital (M1).
- Use the local anaesthetic listing when no anaesthetic, or only local, is needed; general anaesthetic is Z115 (SP5, M1).
- If you did the major pre-operative visit in the previous 12 months, only a minor assessment (GP/FP) or partial assessment (specialist) is payable before the removal that day; if the decision is made at that day's visit, no other assessment before the IOP (SP4).
- Age premiums apply to surgical procedures for patients under 16 (GP64).
- FHO: in basket (Schedule 2), and a Schedule 2B code, so shadow billing for enrolled patients is 50% of the fee; it also counts toward the Schedule 4 office procedures payment (Agreement p.59 §4.4, p.80, p.87, p.67 §8.7, p.94).
