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

What 94010 covers

The patient inhales fully and then exhales as hard and as long as possible into a spirometer. The test records forced vital capacity, FEV1, the FEV1/FVC ratio, and expiratory flow rates, with a volume-time or flow-volume tracing. Maximal voluntary ventilation may also be measured as part of the service. Respiratory therapists, pulmonary function technologists, or trained office staff perform testing in pulmonary and primary care offices, hospital pulmonary function labs, and occupational health clinics. A pulmonologist or other qualified clinician interprets the results. Common uses include COPD and asthma evaluation, preoperative assessment, and monitoring of known restrictive lung disease.

Report one unit for a standard spirometry study; repeated efforts to obtain acceptable results are part of that study. If spirometry is repeated after an administered bronchodilator to assess response, report the response study instead. Documentation should include tracings, effort quality and reproducibility, measured and predicted values, and a signed interpretation. CMS prices the professional and technical components separately: modifier 26 identifies interpretation, while modifier TC identifies equipment and staff services. An entity furnishing both components reports the global service without a component modifier.
