CPT code 67900 designates surgical repair of a drooping eyebrow (brow ptosis) due to muscle weakness or paralysis, performed to improve cosmetic appearance or to remove an obstruction to vision. The procedure typically involves an incision above the eyebrow, below the scalp, or in the mid-forehead to elevate and secure the brow. This code matters nationally because brow ptosis procedures intersect functional and cosmetic indications, influencing coverage decisions, prior authorization practices, and site-of-service determinations across payers.

Key payers covered in this analysis include Aetna, Blue Cross Blue Shield, Cigna Health, UnitedHealthcare, and Medicare. Readers will find a concise overview of how the procedure is defined clinically, typical settings where it is performed, and the payer landscape relevant to coverage and billing. The publication summarizes common billing and coding considerations, identifies typical places of service and service type, and highlights what clinicians and billing staff should verify when preparing claims.

The report also outlines benchmarks and policy updates where available and provides clinical context about indications for brow repair procedures. Data not available in the input is noted where applicable; readers should consult individual payer policies and official coding guidance for claim-specific decisions.
