What 95806 covers

This unattended test records heart rate, oxygen saturation, respiratory airflow, and respiratory effort at the same time. It is commonly performed with a portable monitor in a patient’s home to evaluate suspected sleep-disordered breathing, including obstructive sleep apnea. Clinical staff may prepare the equipment and instruct the patient, while a qualified practitioner interprets the recorded data. The patient is not continuously attended by a technologist during the recording.

Select this code when the study includes the specified combination of signals; document the test performed and retain the recording and interpretation. It differs from unattended studies with other signal sets and from attended laboratory studies. The global service is billed without a component modifier. Modifier 26 identifies the professional interpretation, while modifier TC identifies the equipment and staff component; CMS separately prices both modifiers.

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.

95806 billing questions

How does this differ from 95800?

This code is for simultaneous recording of heart rate, oxygen saturation, airflow, and respiratory effort. Code 95800 is an unattended study that includes sleep-time measurement.

How does this differ from 95801?

Code 95801 covers an unattended study with a minimum of three channels and a broader choice of respiratory-analysis signals. Use this code when the study records the specific heart-rate, oxygen-saturation, airflow, and respiratory-effort combination.

When should modifier 26 or TC be reported?

Use modifier 26 for the professional interpretation and modifier TC for the technical service, including equipment and staff. Bill without either modifier when reporting the global service.

Is this the code for an attended sleep-laboratory study?

No. This code describes an unattended recording. An attended study, such as 95807 or 95810, is selected when the patient is monitored in a sleep laboratory.

What documentation supports reporting this code?

Document that the study was unattended and that the recording included heart rate, oxygen saturation, airflow, and respiratory effort. Keep the test data and the interpreting practitioner’s report.

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.
