Neurologic testing

About 95922: Adrenergic autonomic function testing

Reports testing of sympathetic adrenergic autonomic function, such as blood pressure and heart-rate responses during Valsalva maneuver or head-up tilt.

This service assesses the sympathetic adrenergic part of autonomic control, including how blood pressure and heart-rate measures respond to maneuvers such as Valsalva or head-up tilt. Neurologists and clinicians in autonomic laboratories commonly use it when evaluating symptoms such as orthostatic intolerance, fainting, or suspected autonomic neuropathy. The test may be performed in an office or facility setting using monitoring equipment and trained staff.

Select 95922 when the documented testing evaluates adrenergic function, rather than cardiovagal function alone or sudomotor function. The record should identify the maneuvers or measurements performed and support the clinical reason for testing. CMS recognizes a professional component for interpretation and a technical component for equipment and staff: report modifier 26 for the professional work, modifier TC for the technical service, or neither modifier for the global service.

95922 billing questions

How is 95922 different from 95921?

95922 represents testing of adrenergic sympathetic function, while 95921 represents cardiovagal parasympathetic function. Choose based on the function actually tested and documented.

When should 95924 be considered instead?

95924 describes combined parasympathetic and sympathetic autonomic testing with tilt. Consider it when the performed service assesses both branches as a combined test, rather than assuming 95922 alone represents the full battery.

Which modifiers identify the professional and technical portions?

Append modifier 26 for the professional interpretation and modifier TC for the technical service involving equipment and staff. Billing without either modifier represents the global service.

What documentation supports 95922?

Document the adrenergic function assessment, the maneuvers or measurements performed, and the clinical reason for testing. The record should make clear that the service evaluated sympathetic autonomic responses.

Can 95922 be used for sudomotor testing?

No. Sudomotor function is represented by 95923; 95922 is for adrenergic function.

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.
