What 93770 covers

Code 93770, a CPT Category I service code, identifies a cardiovascular physiologic service that determines pressure in the venous circulation. It distinguishes this measurement from bioimpedance cardiovascular analysis (93701) and bioimpedance spectroscopy for extracellular-fluid analysis (93702); those codes describe different physiologic assessments, not venous pressure determination. Report 93770 to identify the venous-pressure service, rather than either bioimpedance service. The code identifies the pressure determination itself.

Medicare assigns 93770 physician fee schedule status B, meaning the code is bundled. Medicare does not pay 93770 separately; its payment is included in payment for other services. For billing, this means 93770 identifies the venous-pressure service but does not support separate Medicare payment.

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.

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.
