What 76802 covers

This add-on represents evaluation of an additional fetus during an obstetric ultrasound performed before 14 weeks of gestation. It is used when the examination covers a multiple gestation, such as twins, beyond the first fetus. Ultrasound staff acquire the images in an obstetric practice or imaging department; a physician or other qualified practitioner interprets the study and reports its findings.

Report 76802 with the primary early-pregnancy ultrasound code 76801, not by itself. The record should support the gestational age, the number of fetuses evaluated, and findings attributable to each fetus. When billing the global service, submit without a component modifier; modifier 26 identifies the interpretation, while modifier TC identifies the equipment and staff portion. CMS treats this add-on as paid within the primary procedure's global period.

This summary was written with AI assistance from CMS physician fee schedule data and checked against the CMS billing rules shown here. Rates on this page come directly from CMS files.

76802 billing questions

When is 76802 reported instead of 76801?

Use 76801 for the first fetus in an obstetric ultrasound before 14 weeks. Add 76802 for each additional fetus evaluated in that examination.

Can 76802 be billed by itself?

No. It is an add-on to the primary early-pregnancy ultrasound, 76801.

Which modifiers identify the ultrasound components?

Use modifier 26 for the professional interpretation or TC for the technical portion. Billing without either modifier represents the global service.

What documentation supports additional units?

Document gestational age, the number of fetuses evaluated, and findings for each fetus. Report the add-on for each fetus beyond the first.

How does 76802 differ from 76810?

Both represent an additional fetus, but 76802 applies to an obstetric ultrasound before 14 weeks; 76810 is for the corresponding examination at 14 weeks or later.

Where these rates come from

FeeBase calculates base physician payments from CMS work, practice-expense and malpractice RVUs, adjusted by each locality’s geographic indexes and the conversion factor. Services without a published rate are labeled, never given a made-up amount. Amounts are Medicare allowed amounts before claim adjustments: not a patient’s bill or a commercial rate.
