Diagnostic ultrasound
Reports a limited static ultrasound assessment of an infant’s hips, commonly used to evaluate hip structure when developmental dysplasia is suspected.
This study uses real-time ultrasound and documented images to assess infant hip anatomy in a static position. It is used when the clinical question concerns structural features such as acetabular development, rather than observing hip motion or instability. A sonographer may acquire the images, with a qualified physician interpreting the examination. Typical settings include radiology departments and pediatric imaging services.
Select this code when the documented examination is a limited static infant hip study. The report should support the indication, the static assessment performed, the images obtained, and the interpreting clinician’s findings. The CMS fee schedule identifies separately priced professional and technical components: modifier 26 represents the interpretation, while modifier TC represents the equipment and staff. Without either modifier, the service is billed globally, including both components.
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.

76886 describes a static assessment of infant hip structure. 76885 is used for a limited dynamic examination that evaluates the hips during movement.
Yes. Modifier 26 identifies the professional interpretation, and modifier TC identifies the technical service. Billing without either modifier represents the global service.
The record should identify the clinical indication and support that a limited static infant hip study was performed, with image documentation and an interpretation.
No. When the examination evaluates the hips dynamically, use 76885 rather than this static-study code.
FeeBase calculates base physician payments from CMS work, practice-expense, and malpractice RVUs, adjusted by each locality’s geographic indices and the applicable conversion factor. Unavailable or separately priced services are labeled rather than assigned a made-up amount.
