MRI safety

About 76015: Additional nonphysician MR safety assessment time

Reports additional time spent by nonphysician MR safety staff assessing an implant or possible metallic foreign body before MRI.

This add-on captures additional time spent by nonphysician MR safety staff assessing an implant, device, or possible metallic foreign body before an MRI. The assessment may involve reviewing device records and relevant clinical information to determine whether the patient can be scanned safely and under what conditions. It is used when that work extends beyond the initial nonphysician assessment, such as when a patient arrives with an implant whose MRI conditions need careful review.

Report 76015 with 76014 for additional assessment time beyond the initial interval; it is not a stand-alone service. Documentation should identify the safety concern, the review or assessment performed, the staff member performing it, and the time supporting each additional unit. CMS classifies this as technical-component-only, with interpretation covered by a separate code. It is paid within the primary procedure’s global period.

76015 billing questions

When should 76015 be reported instead of 76014?

Use 76014 for the initial nonphysician MR safety assessment. Report 76015 only for additional assessment time beyond that initial interval.

Can 76015 be billed by itself?

No. It is an add-on code reported with the primary assessment, 76014, and is paid within that procedure’s global period.

Does 76015 include interpretation?

No. CMS identifies 76015 as technical-component-only; a separate code covers interpretation.

How should additional units be supported?

Document the assessment work and the time spent so each reported additional 30-minute unit is supported.

How does 76015 differ from 76016?

76015 reports additional time for the nonphysician assessment route. Code 76016 is used for the physician or qualified health care professional route.

Where these rates come from

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.
