What 93292 covers
This service covers in-person interrogation of a wearable cardioverter-defibrillator, including analysis of its recorded rhythm information and a clinician’s review and report. Cardiologists, electrophysiologists, and other qualified health care professionals typically perform or interpret the service for patients wearing a device as temporary protection while their risk or eligibility for an implantable defibrillator is being assessed. It may occur in a cardiology clinic or hospital setting.
Report 93292 for the wearable device interrogation and documented review, not for an implanted defibrillator or pacemaker check. The record should identify the wearable system, document the interrogation and data reviewed, and include the clinician’s findings and report. The service has professional and technical components: bill the interpretation with modifier 26, the equipment and staff with modifier TC, or the global service without a component modifier. The cardiovascular diagnostic multiple procedure reduction applies to the technical component.
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.

93292 billing questions
How does 93292 differ from an implantable defibrillator check?
93292 is for interrogation of a wearable cardioverter-defibrillator. Codes such as 93282–93284 describe evaluation and programming of an implanted defibrillator, with the specific code depending on the device configuration.
Can the professional and technical components be billed separately?
Yes. Modifier 26 identifies the professional interpretation, and modifier TC identifies the technical service; billing without either component modifier represents the global service.
Does the multiple procedure reduction affect both components?
The cardiovascular diagnostic multiple procedure reduction applies to the technical component of 93292.
What documentation supports reporting 93292?
Document that the patient’s wearable defibrillator was interrogated, the recorded data reviewed, and the clinician’s findings and report. Identify the wearable system so the service is distinguishable from an implanted-device evaluation.
Is 93292 the code for remote review of an implanted defibrillator?
No. 93292 describes in-person interrogation of a wearable device; remote interrogation of an implanted defibrillator is represented by a different code, 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.
