What 94774 covers
This service records a child’s respiratory rate and pattern, along with heart rate, during a 24-hour period using a home apnea monitor. It is part of pediatric home apnea monitoring, generally initiated by a clinician who needs a record of respiratory events outside the clinic. Attendance, data download, and physician review are separate services in the same code series.
For Medicare, status C means CMS publishes no national payment and the Medicare Administrative Contractor sets payment for each claim. The Medicare contractor also sets the global period. Medicare identifies 94774 as a global-test-only code, with separate codes describing the professional and technical components. The code represents a 24-hour recording period.
