Amputation of a Toe with Its Long Bone

Nationwide rates for HCPCS 28810

Surgical removal of a single toe along with the long foot bone (metatarsal) connected to it, typically done due to severe infection, poor blood flow, or tissue death affecting that part of the foot. Removing the connected bone as well, rather than just the toe, can allow for a cleaner healing edge and a more stable foot afterward.
