What 93284 covers
This service is an in-person evaluation of a multiple-lead implantable cardioverter-defibrillator, including a CRT-D. The clinician reviews stored rhythm and device information, assesses device and lead function, and adjusts programming when indicated. It is commonly performed by a cardiologist or electrophysiologist in an office or device clinic, with technical work supported by qualified device-clinic staff. The code is selected for the multiple-lead system, not simply because several settings or stored events are reviewed.
The record should support an in-person evaluation, the multiple-lead system, review of relevant device and rhythm data, and any programming performed. Report the global service without a component modifier, or identify the professional interpretation with modifier 26 and the technical service with modifier TC when billing the components separately. The cardiovascular diagnostic multiple procedure reduction applies to the technical component. The professional component is not subject to that reduction.
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.

93284 billing questions
How does 93284 differ from 93283?
93284 is for an implantable defibrillator with a multiple-lead system; 93283 is the dual-lead defibrillator evaluation. Select based on the device system evaluated.
Can the professional and technical services be billed separately?
Yes. Modifier 26 identifies the professional interpretation, and modifier TC identifies the technical service. Without either modifier, the claim represents the global service.
Does the multiple procedure reduction affect both components?
The CMS multiple procedure reduction applies to the technical component. It does not apply to the professional component.
What documentation supports 93284?
Document the in-person evaluation, the multiple-lead defibrillator system, the device and rhythm information reviewed, and any programming changes made.
Can 93284 be used for a remote device check?
No. 93284 describes an in-person programming evaluation. Remote defibrillator interrogation is represented by a different service, such as 93295.
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.
