What 93620 covers

An electrophysiologist performs this invasive study in an electrophysiology lab to investigate a suspected or documented rhythm disorder. Multiple electrode catheters are inserted and repositioned to record electrical activity and deliver pacing. The evaluation includes right atrial, right ventricular, and His bundle recording, along with pacing and recording from the right atrium and right ventricle. Arrhythmia induction or attempted induction is part of the study.

Medicare assigns physician fee schedule status C: CMS publishes no national payment, and the Medicare Administrative Contractor sets payment for each claim. The service may be reported globally or divided into the professional interpretation with modifier 26 and the technical portion with modifier TC. Its 0-day global period includes same-day preoperative and postoperative care. When multiple procedures are performed in the same session, the highest-valued procedure is paid in full and the others are subject to the 50% multiple-procedure 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.

93620 billing questions

What distinguishes 93620 from 93619?

93620 includes right atrial and right ventricular pacing and recording along with right atrial, right ventricular, and His bundle recording. 93619 reports the comprehensive evaluation without that added right-sided pacing and recording.

Can the professional and technical portions be reported separately?

Yes. Modifier 26 identifies the professional interpretation, and modifier TC identifies the technical portion; without either modifier, the claim represents the global service.

What should the procedure note document?

Document catheter placement and repositioning, the cardiac sites recorded and paced, and whether arrhythmia was induced or induction was attempted.

How does Medicare price 93620?

Medicare assigns physician fee schedule status C. The MAC sets payment for each claim rather than CMS publishing a national payment.

Does same-day care fall within the global period?

Yes. The 0-day global period includes same-day preoperative and postoperative care. When multiple procedures occur in the same session, the highest-valued procedure is paid in full and the others are subject to the 50% reduction.

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.
