Computer-Guided Navigation Add-On (Fluoroscopy-Based)

Iowa rates for HCPCS 0054T

This add-on service is performed alongside a bone or joint surgery, using a computer navigation system guided by live X-ray (fluoroscopic) images to track instrument position during the operation. It is billed in addition to the main procedure, such as a joint replacement or spine surgery, rather than standing alone. The system uses real-time X-ray images rather than a pre-operative CT or MRI scan.
