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.

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.

95726 billing questions

How is 95726 different from 95725?

95726 is for physician or qualified health care professional interpretation of monitoring over 84 hours with video. 95725 covers the corresponding duration without video.

When should a shorter-duration video EEG code be selected?

Select the code that matches the total monitoring duration. For example, 95724 is the video EEG interpretation code for monitoring lasting more than 60 hours through 84 hours.

Does 95726 include equipment setup or technical monitoring?

The code represents physician or qualified health care professional review, interpretation, and reporting. Setup and technical monitoring are distinct services when performed and reported.

What documentation supports reporting 95726?

Document that video accompanied the EEG, the monitoring duration exceeded 84 hours, and the physician or qualified health care professional reviewed and interpreted the recording and produced a report.

Is video indicated by a modifier?

No. Video is part of the code selection: use 95726 for the over-84-hour service with video and 95725 for the corresponding service without video.

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.
