Remote physiologic monitoring
About 93264: Wireless pulmonary artery pressure monitoring
Remote monitoring of a wireless pulmonary artery pressure sensor, including data review and interpretation, is reported for a 30-day monitoring period.
This service covers remote follow-up of a wireless pulmonary artery pressure sensor implanted for ongoing hemodynamic monitoring, commonly in patients with heart failure. A cardiologist or other qualified clinician reviews transmitted pressure data over the monitoring period, interprets trends, and prepares a report. Cardiology and heart-failure teams commonly use the information to follow changing pulmonary artery pressures between in-person visits.
Report 93264 for the 30-day service when the record supports monitoring of the implanted wireless pressure sensor and clinician review, interpretation, and reporting of its data. Documentation should identify the monitoring period, show that sensor data were received and reviewed, and support the resulting interpretation and report. Sensor calibration, data collection, monitoring, and reporting are part of this service; do not treat those activities as separate services under this code. Select this code for pulmonary artery pressure data, not ECG rhythm monitoring.

93264 billing questions
When should 93264 be selected instead of an external ECG monitoring code?
Use 93264 for remote data from an implanted wireless pulmonary artery pressure sensor. External ECG monitoring codes describe evaluation of cardiac rhythm, not pulmonary artery pressure.
Can sensor calibration or data collection be billed separately?
No. Calibration, data collection, monitoring, clinician review and interpretation, and the report are included in the service.
What documentation supports reporting 93264?
Keep the monitoring-period dates, evidence of transmitted sensor data, documentation of clinician review and interpretation, and the resulting report.
How is the monitoring period represented?
The code represents a 30-day monitoring service. The record should support the period being reported.
Is 93264 the code for implanting the pressure sensor?
No. It represents remote monitoring after implantation. Code 33289 describes the sensor implantation service.
