CPT code 54415 covers the surgical removal of synthetic material from a previously implanted noninflatable, semirigid or self-contained inflatable penile prosthesis and is used when the procedure does not include prosthesis replacement. Nationally, this code captures a distinct set of urologic revision procedures associated with device explantation for reasons such as infection, mechanical failure, erosion, or patient preference. Its use matters for coding accuracy, claims adjudication, and tracking device-related complications across care settings.

Key payers included in this analysis are Aetna, Blue Cross Blue Shield, Cigna Health, UnitedHealthcare, and Medicare. Readers will find concise guidance on the clinical context for reporting the code, typical sites of service (hospital operating room and ambulatory surgical center), common billing modifiers provided in the input, and where to look for related coding considerations. The report outlines what to expect in claims workflows, high-level benchmarking themes, and potential policy or coverage considerations that affect reimbursement and utilization reporting for explant procedures.

This summary is intended for coding staff, revenue cycle professionals, and clinical leaders seeking a national overview of CPT code 54415, including operational implications and coding context. Data not available in the input for associated taxonomies, ICD-10 diagnoses, and related codes.
