About 93227: Holter monitor interpretation and report
Reports a physician’s interpretation of ambulatory ECG data from a recording under 48 hours, commonly used to evaluate intermittent rhythm symptoms.
A physician reviews and interprets ambulatory electrocardiographic data collected during a short-term Holter recording, then documents the findings in a report. The test may be ordered for symptoms such as palpitations, dizziness, or suspected intermittent arrhythmia when a continuous ECG recording can help assess cardiac rhythm over the monitoring period. Cardiologists and other qualified practitioners who interpret ECG studies typically perform this professional service.
Report 93227 for the interpretation and report portion of the under-48-hour study, not for the recording or computerized scanning and analysis work. The record should support the monitoring period, the physician’s review of the tracing, relevant rhythm findings, and the resulting interpretation. CMS identifies 93227 as a professional-component-only code; the technical work is represented separately, including recording with 93225 and scanning analysis with 93226. Code 93224 represents the complete service when its components are reported together.
