What 95801 covers

This service is an unattended recording of heart rate, oxygen saturation, and respiratory activity, such as airflow or peripheral arterial tone. It is commonly used as a home sleep apnea test when a clinician evaluates suspected obstructive sleep apnea and selects a limited-channel study. The patient wears the recording equipment without a technologist attending the study; a qualified professional reviews and interprets the recorded data.

Select this code for the recorded signals, not simply because testing occurred at home. Distinguish it from related sleep-study codes by the measurements actually captured: this code does not include sleep-time recording or respiratory-effort recording. Documentation should identify the study performed, recorded signals, test data, and interpretation. CMS recognizes separately priced professional and technical components: report modifier 26 for interpretation, modifier TC for equipment and staff, or neither modifier for the global 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.

95801 billing questions

How does this differ from 95800?

Code 95800 includes sleep-time recording in addition to the signals reported with 95801. Choose based on the measurements captured by the study.

When is 95806 a better fit?

Code 95806 includes respiratory-effort recording. Use 95801 when the documented unattended study records heart rate, oxygen saturation, and respiratory analysis without that additional signal.

Can the professional and technical portions be billed separately?

Yes. Report modifier 26 for the professional interpretation or modifier TC for the technical equipment-and-staff portion. Without either modifier, the code represents the global service.

What supports reporting the professional component?

The record should support review and interpretation of the study data, including a documented interpretation by the responsible qualified professional.

Is this an attended laboratory polysomnography code?

No. This code describes unattended recording. An attended sleep study, such as 95807 or polysomnography such as 95810, represents a different testing setup.

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.
