Medicare allowed amount for participating (non-QP) physicians, before deductible, coinsurance and claim adjustments. Not a patient’s bill or a hospital charge.

What 76700 covers

A complete abdominal ultrasound surveys the liver, gallbladder, common bile duct, pancreas, spleen, both kidneys, upper abdominal aorta, and inferior vena cava. It may be ordered for abdominal pain, abnormal liver tests, jaundice, or suspected gallstones when the clinical question calls for a broad survey. A sonographer usually acquires images in a hospital imaging department, imaging center, or office; a radiologist or other qualified physician interprets them and issues a report.

The report should address each required structure and explain any that could not be visualized despite an attempted complete exam, such as because of bowel gas or prior surgery. Select 76705 when the examination is limited to a region or organ. CMS recognizes a technical component for equipment and staff, reported with modifier TC, and a professional interpretation, reported with modifier 26. Report 76700 without either modifier when one billing entity furnishes both components. When multiple eligible diagnostic imaging services are furnished to the same patient on the same date, CMS applies its imaging multiple procedure reduction to the applicable technical and professional components.
