Medicare allowed amount for participating (non-QP) physicians, before deductible, coinsurance and claim adjustments. Not a patient’s bill or a hospital charge.

What 93041 covers

This code covers acquisition of a short electrocardiographic rhythm tracing using one to three leads, without interpretation or a written report. It is typically used in an office or outpatient setting when a clinician needs a rhythm strip to evaluate a symptom such as palpitations or to document a rhythm finding. Clinical staff may obtain the tracing under the treating clinician’s direction; this code accounts for the technical service, not the clinician’s reading.

Select this service for a limited-lead rhythm tracing, rather than the tracing portion of a standard 12-lead ECG. The record should support the reason for the tracing and show that the rhythm strip was obtained. A separately performed and documented interpretation and report are represented by a separate code, 93042. Medicare applies the cardiovascular diagnostic multiple procedure reduction to the technical component when applicable, so the adjustment affects this tracing service’s technical payment.
