What 90964 covers

This code represents a month of physician management for a child ages 2 through 11 receiving home dialysis. A nephrologist typically assesses the child’s dialysis-related status, reviews treatment and laboratory information, and manages issues such as fluid balance, blood pressure, medications, vascular access, and dialysis complications. Care may involve coordination with the family and the home dialysis team in an outpatient setting.

Select the code based on the patient’s age and home-dialysis status for the month. Documentation should support the patient’s age, home dialysis, and the physician’s ESRD-related management during that month. This is a monthly service code, not a code for each home dialysis session. For a partial month, compare the circumstances with the applicable per-day ESRD service code rather than treating this as a per-session 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.

90964 billing questions

How is 90964 distinguished from 90963 and 90965?

These are monthly home-dialysis ESRD service codes distinguished by patient age. Code 90964 is for ages 2 through 11; 90963 is for patients younger than 2, and 90965 is for ages 12 through 19.

Is 90964 reported for every home dialysis treatment?

No. It represents monthly ESRD-related physician management, not an individual dialysis session.

What documentation supports reporting 90964?

Document the patient’s age, home-dialysis status, and the ESRD-related assessment and management provided during the month.

When should a per-day code be considered instead?

Consider the age-appropriate per-day ESRD service code when the applicable circumstances involve a partial month. Code 90968 is the per-day code for ages 2 through 11.

How does 90964 differ from 90954?

Both relate to patients ages 2 through 11, but 90964 is for home dialysis. Code 90954 is a monthly ESRD service code for a different dialysis setting and visit-count category.

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.
