What 94625 covers

94625 represents one outpatient pulmonary rehabilitation session delivered by a physician or other qualified health care professional without continuous ECG monitoring. These sessions are part of structured rehabilitation for people with chronic pulmonary disease, such as COPD, and may include individualized physical conditioning and disease-management education. The service is rehabilitation, not a diagnostic exercise stress test or a stand-alone inhaler demonstration.

Report one unit for the session, selecting 94625 when continuous ECG monitoring is not used; use 94626 for a session with continuous ECG monitoring. Documentation should identify the pulmonary rehabilitation session, activities provided, and monitoring approach. CMS assigns separate office and facility practice-expense inputs in the physician fee schedule, so the setting affects the fee-schedule valuation used for the service.

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.

94625 billing questions

When should 94625 be chosen over 94626?

Use 94625 for an outpatient pulmonary rehabilitation session without continuous ECG monitoring. Use 94626 when continuous ECG monitoring is part of the session.

Is 94625 reported per exercise or per session?

Report one unit for the pulmonary rehabilitation session, not a separate unit for each exercise performed during it.

Does 94625 cover a diagnostic exercise test?

No. It represents a rehabilitation session. A simple pulmonary stress test or cardiopulmonary exercise test is reported with the applicable testing code, such as 94618 or 94621.

What should the note support?

Document the outpatient pulmonary rehabilitation session, the rehabilitation activities provided, and whether continuous ECG monitoring was used.

Can inhaler instruction be reported with 94625?

94625 describes the rehabilitation session, not a separate inhaler demonstration. If inhaler instruction is provided as a distinct service, consider whether 94664 accurately describes that service and check applicable claim edits.

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.
