What 95715 covers
This service pairs long-term EEG recording with video and technologist monitoring at intervals rather than continuously. EEG staff in a hospital or epilepsy monitoring unit may use it to correlate electrical activity with a patient's behavior during evaluation of suspected seizures, unexplained spells, or other episodic symptoms. The video helps clinicians assess whether observed movements or behavior correspond to EEG changes.
Select this service for a 12–26-hour recording with video and intermittent monitoring; unmonitored and continuously monitored services have separate codes. Physician or qualified health care professional review and interpretation are represented by separate EEG codes when performed. Medicare assigns this CPT Category I service physician fee schedule status C, or carrier priced: CMS publishes no national payment, and the Medicare Administrative Contractor sets payment for each claim.
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.
