CPT code 95807: Sleep study, technologist-attended recording2026 Medicare rate & RVUs in California

Medicare pays $479.67–$620.61 for 95807 in the office in California, from Chico, CA to San Benito County, CA. Which amount applies depends on the service address.

Medicare allowed amount for participating (non-QP) physicians, before deductible, coinsurance and claim adjustments. Not a patient’s bill or a hospital charge.

What 95807 covers

This study records cardiorespiratory signals during sleep while a technologist attends the patient. It is commonly performed in a sleep laboratory or hospital for evaluation of suspected sleep-disordered breathing, including obstructive sleep apnea. The recorded signals focus on ventilation, respiratory effort, heart rate or ECG, and oxygen saturation rather than EEG-based sleep staging. A qualified clinician reviews the recorded data and prepares the interpretation.

Select this code when the service performed is an attended cardiorespiratory sleep study, rather than an unattended home study or polysomnography with sleep staging. Documentation should identify the attended setting, the signals recorded, the clinical indication, and the interpreting report. CMS recognizes separately priced professional and technical components: modifier 26 identifies the interpretation, and modifier TC identifies equipment and staff. Reporting without either modifier represents the global service, including both components.
