About 97814: Additional acupuncture with electrical stimulation
Reports each additional 15-minute acupuncture treatment segment involving needle reinsertion and electrical stimulation after the initial timed acupuncture service.
Code 97814 captures a subsequent timed segment of acupuncture treatment in which the practitioner continues one-on-one care, reinserts one or more needles, and applies electrical stimulation. It is used during pain-management visits when treatment extends beyond the initial acupuncture segment. A physician or other qualified acupuncture practitioner may perform the service in an office or outpatient setting, subject to applicable scope and coverage requirements.
Report 97814 only with primary acupuncture code 97813; it is not a stand-alone service. Select additional units from documented treatment time and record the face-to-face work, needle reinsertion, and use of electrical stimulation. CMS identifies 97814 as an add-on code: payment falls within the primary procedure's global period. Keep the initial segment on 97813 and use 97814 only for subsequent qualifying segments; treatment without electrical stimulation follows a different code path.
