What 76812 covers

This add-on represents a detailed ultrasound assessment of an additional fetus in a multiple gestation. The examination may include evaluation of fetal anatomy and related pregnancy structures, with findings documented separately for each fetus examined. Obstetricians, maternal-fetal medicine specialists, and radiologists commonly perform or interpret these studies in office or hospital imaging settings when a detailed fetal assessment is indicated.

Report 76812 with the primary detailed obstetric ultrasound, 76811, for each additional fetus that receives the detailed assessment. Documentation should identify the fetuses evaluated and support the scope and findings of the examination for each. CMS classifies 76812 as an add-on: it must be billed with a primary procedure and is paid within that procedure’s global period. The diagnostic service has professional and technical components. Report modifier 26 for the interpretation or modifier TC for the equipment and staff; billing without either modifier represents the global service.

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.

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.
