What 95199 covers

Code 95199 is the unlisted CPT entry for an allergy or clinical immunology service or procedure that has no specific code describing the work. Allergy and immunology clinicians may report it when the work does not fit a listed code in this service area. Listed codes separately identify immunotherapy injections, antigen therapy services, and rapid desensitization. Those codes are the better match when they describe the service performed.

For Medicare, 95199 has physician fee schedule status C, carrier priced. CMS publishes no national payment, and the Medicare Administrative Contractor sets payment for each claim. Selection turns on whether a listed allergy or immunology code describes the service performed.

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.
