Gastrointestinal testing
About 91133: Electrogastrography with provocative testing
Electrogastrography with testing records gastric electrical activity during a challenge, helping evaluate abnormal stomach rhythms in patients with persistent upper gastrointestinal symptoms.
Electrogastrography with testing records electrical signals from the stomach before and during or after a challenge, commonly a meal, to assess gastric slow-wave patterns and their response. Gastroenterology practices may use it when persistent nausea, vomiting, or suspected gastric dysrhythmia prompts evaluation of gastric electrical function. Surface electrodes capture the signals, which are interpreted in relation to the test protocol.
Report 91133 when the electrogastrography includes a test or challenge; the recording without that test is represented by 91132. Documentation should identify the clinical indication, challenge performed, recording conditions, and interpretation of the resulting gastric electrical activity. CMS recognizes a professional portion for interpretation, reported with modifier 26, and a technical portion for equipment and staff, reported with modifier TC. Billing without either modifier represents the global service.

What documentation supports reporting 91133?
Record the reason for testing, the challenge performed, the recording conditions, and the interpretation of the gastric electrical findings.
Is a meal challenge required for 91133?
The service includes a test or challenge; a meal is a common example. The documentation should identify the test actually performed.
