About 95806: Unattended cardiorespiratory sleep study
Report this unattended sleep study when a portable test simultaneously records heart rate, oxygen saturation, airflow, and respiratory effort to assess sleep-disordered breathing.
This unattended test records heart rate, oxygen saturation, respiratory airflow, and respiratory effort at the same time. It is commonly performed with a portable monitor in a patient’s home to evaluate suspected sleep-disordered breathing, including obstructive sleep apnea. Clinical staff may prepare the equipment and instruct the patient, while a qualified practitioner interprets the recorded data. The patient is not continuously attended by a technologist during the recording.
Select this code when the study includes the specified combination of signals; document the test performed and retain the recording and interpretation. It differs from unattended studies with other signal sets and from attended laboratory studies. The global service is billed without a component modifier. Modifier 26 identifies the professional interpretation, while modifier TC identifies the equipment and staff component; CMS separately prices both modifiers.
