About Treatment Of Ankle Fracture
CPT code 27808 refers to treatment of ankle fracture (billing description: "Treatment of ankle fracture"). Under the 2026 Medicare Physician Fee Schedule, it is reimbursed at $320 in a facility (hospital or surgery center) and $382 in a doctor's office.
The Medicare rate is the closest thing to an objective "what this work is actually worth." A fair cash price for the uninsured is generally 1.5–3x that rate. Hospital sticker (gross) charges are often far higher — but almost nobody actually pays them.
