What 94762 covers
This service records oxygen saturation continuously overnight using an ear or pulse oximeter. It is commonly arranged for a patient with suspected nocturnal hypoxemia, including someone with chronic lung disease whose oxygen levels during sleep need assessment. Monitoring may be performed at home or in a clinical setting, depending on the equipment and care plan. The recording measures oxygen saturation; it is not a respiratory-event or airflow study.
Report 94762 for the overnight continuous recording, rather than for isolated readings or repeated spot checks. Documentation should identify the clinical reason for testing and include the monitoring record or report supporting that the service was performed overnight. CMS classifies this as a technical-component-only code: the code represents the technical service, and interpretation is covered by a separate code when performed and appropriately reported. Do not treat the technical service as including the interpretation.
