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

What 93654 covers

An electrophysiologist performs this procedure in an electrophysiology lab, typically in a hospital or other facility, to evaluate and ablate ventricular tachycardia. The work includes placing and positioning intracardiac electrode catheters, recording and pacing the heart, inducing or attempting to induce the arrhythmia, and using catheter ablation to treat the ventricular tachycardia. A common clinical setting is treatment of scar-related VT in a patient with structural heart disease.

Select 93654 when the procedure includes comprehensive EP evaluation and catheter ablation for VT; an EP study without ablation or ablation for another arrhythmia type points to a different code. The operative report should support the arrhythmia treated, evaluation and mapping performed, and ablation delivered. The same-day preoperative and postoperative care is included in the 0-day global period. For multiple procedures in one session, CMS pays the highest-valued procedure in full and reduces the others to 50%. Modifier 50 is inappropriate. Assistant-at-surgery payment requires documentation of medical necessity; co-surgeons and team surgery are not permitted.

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.
