Frequently Asked Questions
CPT 93229 reports the technical support for external mobile cardiovascular telemetry for up to 30 days: connection, patient instructions, attended remote surveillance, analysis and transmission of daily and emergent reports.
The physician's review and interpretation is reported separately with 93228. CPT 93229 is usually billed by the independent diagnostic testing facility that runs the monitoring center.
Medicare pays CPT 93229 under the Physician Fee Schedule. The non-facility rate applies when the service is done in an office and covers the practice's staff, supplies and equipment; the lower facility rate applies in a hospital or surgery center, which bills its own facility fee. Both are adjusted for the local cost of practice. Commercial payers negotiate their own rates, often as a percentage of Medicare, so the same code can pay very differently from one contract to the next.
This page lists the rates commercial payers have published for CPT 93229 in their Transparency in Coverage files, so you can compare payers and see where a contract falls. For government benchmarks, PayerPrice also has the Medicare fee schedule lookup and Medicaid fee schedules by state.
