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

What 93245 covers

This code represents the complete service for extended external ECG monitoring over more than 7 days and up to 15 days. A patient may wear a patch or other ambulatory monitor while going about daily activities when symptoms such as intermittent palpitations, dizziness, or suspected arrhythmia have not been captured during a brief ECG or shorter monitoring period. The service includes recording, technical analysis, and physician review and interpretation. Cardiology practices and other clinicians managing rhythm evaluation commonly use these monitors in outpatient care.

Select this code based on the documented monitoring duration and report it when the complete service is billed together. CMS identifies 93245 as a global-test-only code; separate codes describe the recording, analysis, and interpretation components when those services are billed separately. Keep the monitoring dates and duration, recorded data and analysis, and interpreting clinician’s findings in the record. The cardiovascular diagnostic multiple procedure reduction applies to the technical component, so it affects the technical portion when applicable rather than the professional interpretation.
