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

What 93655 covers

An electrophysiologist reports this code when a catheter ablation session treats an arrhythmia mechanism distinct from the session’s primary ablation target. For example, an atrial flutter circuit may be treated during a procedure whose primary target is atrial fibrillation. The separate target must represent another mechanism, not simply additional lesions directed at the primary arrhythmia. These procedures are typically performed in a cardiac electrophysiology lab using intracardiac catheters and electrophysiologic mapping.

Report 93655 only with a qualifying primary ablation code: 93653, 93654, or 93656. The record should identify the separate arrhythmia mechanism and document its evaluation and ablation. This is an add-on service, not a stand-alone claim line; CMS pays it within the primary procedure’s global-period framework. Report the additional mechanism treated, rather than counting individual lesions as separate units.
