What 90955 covers

CPT 90955 represents monthly end-stage renal disease (ESRD)-related care for a patient aged 2 through 11 when the physician or qualified health care professional conducts two or three face-to-face visits during the month. Pediatric nephrologists commonly report it while managing children receiving maintenance dialysis. Monthly care may involve reviewing the dialysis plan, volume and blood-pressure status, laboratory results, medications, vascular or peritoneal access concerns, and treatment complications. This is monthly management, not a code for an individual dialysis treatment.

Choose the code by the patient’s age and the number of qualifying face-to-face visits during the month. The record should support the visit dates and the renal management provided; count these visits, not dialysis sessions. Report the monthly service once for the applicable month, rather than assigning 90955 to each visit. CMS assigns work, practice-expense, and malpractice relative value units to the 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.

90955 billing questions

How many visits support 90955?

The patient must be 2 through 11 years old and have two or three qualifying face-to-face visits during the month. The number of dialysis sessions does not determine the visit level.

Should 90955 be reported for each monthly visit?

No. It represents the monthly ESRD-related service, so report it once for the month rather than once per face-to-face visit.

When should 90954 be used instead?

For a patient aged 2 through 11, use 90954 when the monthly visit count meets the four-or-more-visit level. Use 90955 for two or three visits.

What documentation supports 90955?

Document the patient's age, the dates of the two or three face-to-face visits, and the ESRD-related assessment and management furnished at those visits.

Is 90955 for an individual dialysis-session evaluation?

No. It represents monthly ESRD-related care. Codes such as 90935 or 90945 describe evaluation associated with an individual dialysis service, rather than this monthly visit-count service.

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.
