What 95027 covers

This service uses intradermal injections of airborne allergen extracts in a sequential, incremental series to assess immediate-type sensitivity. Allergy specialists commonly perform it in an office allergy clinic, sometimes after percutaneous testing has not resolved the clinical question. The series may evaluate suspected sensitivity to aeroallergens such as pollens, dust mites, or animal dander.

Select 95027 for the sequential and incremental intradermal protocol for airborne allergens, rather than routine intradermal testing or percutaneous testing. The record should identify the allergens tested, the testing sequence, the number of tests performed, and the observed reactions. Report the documented test count, not simply one unit for the visit. CMS assigns work, practice-expense, and malpractice relative values to 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.

95027 billing questions

How does 95027 differ from 95024?

95027 is for sequential, incremental intradermal testing of airborne allergens. 95024 describes intradermal allergen testing without that sequential-and-incremental distinction.

When would 95004 be more appropriate?

Use 95004 for percutaneous testing, such as prick or puncture testing. 95027 is for the specified intradermal sequence, not surface testing.

How many units should be reported?

Report the number of tests performed and documented, rather than one unit for the entire allergy-testing visit. The record should support the test count and the incremental sequence.

Can an office visit be reported on the same date?

A separately identifiable evaluation may be reported when the documentation supports a distinct E/M service in addition to the testing. The testing work alone does not establish a separate office visit.

Is 95027 used for venom or drug testing?

No. This code is specific to sequential, incremental intradermal testing for airborne allergens; venom and drug or biologic testing have separate code pathways.

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.
