What 90963 covers

Code 90963 covers a physician’s month-level management of a child younger than 2 years who receives dialysis at home. The nephrologist or other clinician managing the renal replacement plan assesses the child’s clinical course, dialysis prescription, fluid balance, blood pressure, laboratory findings, medications, nutrition, growth, and dialysis access, and adjusts care as needed. This work commonly occurs through a pediatric nephrology practice, with coordination among caregivers, home dialysis nurses, and the dialysis program.

Select this code based on the home-dialysis setting, the patient’s age, and the billing period. It represents monthly ESRD-related management, rather than a dialysis treatment session. Dated documentation should support the clinician’s assessment and management during the month. When ESRD-related services are furnished for less than a full month, the age-specific per-day code 90967 is the related reporting option. CMS PFS pricing assigns work, practice-expense, and malpractice RVUs to this monthly 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.

90963 billing questions

Which patients qualify for 90963?

Use it for monthly ESRD-related services for a patient younger than 2 years who receives dialysis at home. The age and dialysis setting distinguish it from the other monthly ESRD management codes.

Is 90963 selected by the number of monthly visits?

No visit-count tier is built into this home-dialysis code. Select it by the patient’s age, home-dialysis status, and monthly service period.

When is 90967 used instead?

90967 is the related per-day code for a patient younger than 2 years when ESRD-related services cover less than a full month.

Does the number of home dialysis treatments determine units?

No. 90963 represents monthly ESRD-related management, not individual dialysis treatments; document the monthly assessment and management furnished.

How does 90963 differ from 90951?

90963 is for home dialysis and is selected by age and monthly service period. 90951 is an in-center ESRD management code for a patient younger than 2 years with a four-or-more-visit monthly level.

What documentation supports 90963?

Record the patient’s age and home-dialysis status, the month of service, and the clinician’s ESRD-related assessment and management, such as review of the dialysis plan, clinical status, and relevant results.

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.
