What 95726 covers

This service captures the physician or qualified health care professional’s review and interpretation of a prolonged EEG recording accompanied by synchronized video. It is used in extended seizure evaluations, such as monitoring in an epilepsy unit to assess suspected seizures and correlate recorded behaviors with electrical activity. The service includes interpretation and a report, rather than the equipment setup or technical monitoring work.

Choose 95726 when the video EEG monitoring duration exceeds 84 hours. The duration and presence of video distinguish it from shorter-duration codes and from 95725, which describes the corresponding service without video. Documentation should support the monitoring duration, video availability, the clinical question, the findings interpreted, and the resulting report. Report any separately coded recording or technical services based on the work performed and the applicable service codes.
