In simple words: This code indicates that your doctor is participating in a program to improve the quality of care for patients undergoing lower extremity joint repair, like knee and hip replacements. The program aims to ensure patients receive appropriate care and helps to lower healthcare costs.

This code is used to report participation in the Improving Care for Lower Extremity Joint Repair MIPS Value Pathways (MVP) program.This program focuses on providing fundamental treatment and management of patients with osteoarthritis and lower extremity surgical repair, such as fracture and total joint replacement, to ensure appropriate care and reduce costs.

Example 1: A patient with osteoarthritis of the knee receives a total knee replacement. The provider participates in the MVP program and reports G0058., A patient sustains a hip fracture and undergoes surgical repair. The provider, participating in the MVP, reports G0058., A patient undergoes ankle fracture repair.The orthopedic surgeon participates in the Lower Extremity Joint Repair MVP and reports G0058 to track quality measures.

Documentation should support the diagnosis and treatment provided within the scope of the Lower Extremity Joint Repair MVP. This includes documentation of the patient's condition, the decision-making process for treatment, the procedures performed, and any relevant post-operative care. Participation in the MVP may require additional documentation related to quality measures.
