Overview
Zimmer Biomet’s Patient Specific Instruments (PSI) and Signature system are designed to streamline total knee and reverse shoulder replacement surgery by ensuring accurate and reproducible guide fixation.
Pre-Operative Scans
The system utilizes pre-operative MRI or CT scans to create mechanical axis-based pin guides that conform precisely to the patient’s anatomy.
Coverage for these scans may need to be evaluated, and providers should contact payers directly to clarify coverage policies and prior authorization requirements.
Coding and Reimbursement
The guide provides information on CPT codes and reimbursement policies for pre-operative scans and procedures related to the PSI and Signature system.
It also includes guidance from the American College of Radiology and notes on Medicare’s Outpatient Prospective Payment System (OPPS) and Ambulatory Surgery Center (ASC) payment indicators.
