What 93600 covers

An electrode catheter records electrical activity from the His bundle, a conduction pathway between the atria and ventricles. Electrophysiologists use the recording to evaluate cardiac conduction and arrhythmias, usually during an invasive electrophysiology study in a hospital electrophysiology or cardiac catheterization lab. The code describes the His-bundle recording itself, rather than a comprehensive evaluation of multiple cardiac sites.

Medicare assigns status C under the physician fee schedule: there is no national payment, and the Medicare Administrative Contractor sets payment for each claim. This is a diagnostic test with professional and technical portions. Report modifier 26 for the interpretation, modifier TC for the equipment and staff, or no modifier for the global service. The procedure has a 0-day global period, which includes same-day preoperative and postoperative care.

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.

93600 billing questions

When should I report this instead of 93602 or 93603?

Report 93600 for recording from the His bundle. Code 93602 identifies an intra-atrial recording, while 93603 identifies a right ventricular recording.

How does this differ from a comprehensive EP evaluation?

93600 describes a His-bundle recording. A comprehensive EP evaluation code, such as 93619, describes a broader electrophysiologic study.

Which modifier identifies the interpretation?

Use modifier 26 for the professional interpretation. Modifier TC identifies the technical portion; reporting without either modifier represents the global service.

Does Medicare publish a national payment for this code?

No. Medicare assigns status C, so the Medicare Administrative Contractor sets payment for each claim.

What global period applies?

The code has a 0-day global period. Same-day preoperative and postoperative care is included.

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.
