About 95811: Attended polysomnography with PAP titration
Reports an attended overnight sleep study for a patient age six or older that includes sleep staging, multiple physiologic measurements, and CPAP or bilevel titration.
This attended overnight study records sleep stages and at least four additional physiologic parameters while a sleep technologist monitors the patient. It includes starting and adjusting continuous positive airway pressure or bilevel ventilation during the study to assess treatment. Sleep laboratories commonly perform it for suspected obstructive sleep apnea when pressure needs to be established, or as a split-night study when diagnostic findings lead to titration during the same night. A sleep physician or other qualified interpreting professional reviews the recorded data and reports the findings and titration results.
Report 95811 for a patient age six or older when the study includes the required monitoring and PAP titration; a diagnostic-only study without titration is distinguished by 95810. For a split-night study, report the combined diagnostic and titration service rather than separately reporting 95810 for the diagnostic portion. Documentation should identify the monitored parameters, technologist attendance, titration performed, and interpretation. CMS prices the professional interpretation with modifier 26 and the equipment and staff portion with modifier TC; reporting the code without either modifier represents the global service.

95811 billing questions
When should 95811 be chosen instead of 95810?
Use 95811 when an attended study for a patient age six or older includes CPAP or bilevel titration. Use 95810 for an attended diagnostic study without PAP titration.
Can 95810 also be reported for the diagnostic portion of a split-night study?
No. Report 95811 for the combined diagnostic and titration service rather than separately reporting 95810 for the initial portion of that same split-night study.
How do modifiers 26 and TC apply?
Modifier 26 identifies the professional interpretation, and modifier TC identifies the technical service, including equipment and staff. Without either modifier, 95811 represents the global service.
What documentation supports 95811?
Document the patient's age, technologist attendance, sleep staging and additional parameters monitored, PAP titration performed, and the interpreting professional's findings.
Can a multiple sleep latency test be reported with 95811?
A multiple sleep latency test may be performed after an overnight sleep study as a separate daytime service when clinically indicated. The records should distinguish the daytime test from the overnight study and its titration.
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.
