What 93228 covers

This service covers a physician’s or other qualified health care professional’s review and interpretation of ECG information from remote external monitoring lasting more than 24 hours and up to 30 days, with a report. It is commonly used to evaluate intermittent symptoms such as palpitations or syncope when a standard office ECG may not capture an episode. Cardiologists and other clinicians experienced in ECG interpretation typically provide the professional service for outpatient monitoring.

Select the code for the professional interpretation and report, not for device connection, recording, or technical analysis. The record should support the monitoring period, the ECG information reviewed, the interpretation, and the resulting report. CMS treats 93228 as a professional-component-only code; the technical portion is separately represented by 93229. The professional service is not a substitute for the technical service when both were furnished.
