What 95803 covers

Actigraphy uses a wearable motion-sensing device, commonly worn on the wrist, to record activity and rest over time and estimate sleep-wake patterns. A sleep medicine clinician may use the results when evaluating insomnia, a suspected circadian rhythm sleep-wake disorder, or a mismatch between reported sleep and observed routines. The test covers recording for at least 72 hours, followed by analysis, interpretation, and a report; it does not measure sleep stages or respiratory events like a sleep study.

Report 95803 for the actigraphy service, supported by documentation of the recording period, analysis, interpretation, and findings. The code has separately priced professional and technical components: modifier 26 identifies interpretation, while modifier TC identifies equipment and staff. Reporting the code without either modifier represents the global service. The record should identify the device-based recording period and explain how the results address the sleep-wake question being evaluated.

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.

95803 billing questions

How is actigraphy different from an unattended sleep study?

Actigraphy tracks movement over time to estimate sleep and wake patterns. An unattended sleep study, such as 95800 or 95806, records physiologic data used to evaluate sleep-related breathing or other sleep-study questions.

Can 95803 be reported with modifier 26 or TC?

Yes. Modifier 26 identifies the professional interpretation, and modifier TC identifies the technical service, including equipment and staff. Without either modifier, the code represents the global service.

What recording duration supports this code?

The test involves at least 72 hours of actigraphy recording, followed by analysis, interpretation, and a report. Document the actual recording period and resulting findings.

Does actigraphy measure sleep stages or breathing?

No. It estimates sleep and wake from recorded movement; it does not provide sleep-stage or respiratory-event measurements like polysomnography or a sleep apnea test.

What documentation should accompany the claim?

Document the clinical sleep-wake question, recording period, analysis and interpretation, and findings. For a component claim, identify whether the service was professional interpretation or technical equipment and staff.

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.
