Neurophysiology testing

About 95930: Visual evoked potential testing

Reports visual evoked potential testing that records responses along the visual pathway to help evaluate suspected optic nerve or central visual pathway dysfunction.

A visual evoked potential study records electrical responses generated as visual stimuli travel from the eyes through the optic nerves and central visual pathways. Pattern-reversal stimulation is commonly used. Neurologists, neuro-ophthalmologists, and ophthalmologists may order the test when evaluating suspected optic neuritis, demyelinating disease, or unexplained visual dysfunction. Testing is performed in an office or hospital setting using recording equipment and appropriately trained staff.

Report 95930 for the visual evoked potential service, including interpretation and report. The global service includes both the technical work, such as equipment and staff, and the professional interpretation; modifier 26 identifies the professional component, while modifier TC identifies the technical component. Documentation should support the visual stimulus and responses obtained, the interpretation, and the clinical question addressed. The code is priced as bilateral, so modifier 50 does not increase payment.

95930 billing questions

When should 95930 be chosen over somatosensory evoked potential codes?

Use 95930 for testing visual pathway responses. Somatosensory evoked potential codes assess responses to stimulation of peripheral nerves, skin sites, or dermatomes.

What is included in the global service?

The global service combines the technical work, including equipment and staff, with the professional interpretation. Bill modifier 26 for the professional component or TC for the technical component when reporting a component.

Should modifier 50 be appended for testing both eyes?

The code is priced as bilateral, and modifier 50 does not increase payment.

What documentation supports 95930?

Document the visual stimulation and responses recorded, the interpretation and report, and the clinical concern prompting the study, such as suspected optic nerve or central visual pathway dysfunction.

Can the technical and professional components be billed separately?

Yes. Modifier TC identifies the technical component, and modifier 26 identifies the professional interpretation. Billing without either modifier represents the global service.

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.
