Electrodiagnostic testing

About 95875: Electrodiagnostic limb exercise test

Electrodiagnostic limb exercise testing records muscle responses to exertion and is reported when evaluating suspected exercise-related weakness or abnormal muscle excitability.

This electrodiagnostic study records how a limb muscle responds to a controlled exercise protocol, using electrical measurements around exertion to identify abnormal response patterns. Neurologists and physical medicine and rehabilitation physicians typically perform it in an electrodiagnostic laboratory when evaluating episodic or exertional weakness, including suspected periodic paralysis or other muscle excitability disorders. The test differs from measuring joint range of motion and from needle sampling of muscle.

Report 95875 when the limb exercise protocol and its electrodiagnostic measurements are performed. Documentation should identify the limb tested, the protocol, the recorded responses, and the interpretation. The CMS fee schedule recognizes a professional component for interpretation (modifier 26) and a technical component for equipment and staff (modifier TC); a claim without either modifier represents the global service. Select the component that matches the work furnished and billed, and connect the findings to the suspected neuromuscular condition rather than documenting exercise alone.

95875 billing questions

How is 95875 different from needle EMG?

95875 reports electrical measurement of muscle response around a limb exercise protocol. Needle EMG codes report needle sampling of muscle, with code selection based on the muscles and extremities examined.

When should 95875 be considered instead of a range-of-motion code?

Use 95875 for an exercise protocol with electrodiagnostic measurements of muscle response. Range-of-motion codes describe joint movement measurements, not electrical muscle testing.

Can the professional and technical components be billed separately?

Yes. Modifier 26 identifies the interpretation, and modifier TC identifies the equipment and staff component. Without either modifier, the claim represents the global service.

What should the record show?

Document the limb tested, the exercise protocol, the electrical responses recorded, and the interpretation linking the findings to the clinical evaluation.
