*(Code
95920 describes ongoing electrophysiologic testing and monitoring performed
during surgical procedures. Code 95920 is reported per hour of service, and
includes only the ongoing electrophysiologic monitoring time distinct from
performance of specific type(s) of baseline electrophysiologic study(ies)
(95860, 95861, 95867, 95868,95870, 95900, 95904,95928,95929, 95933– 95937)
or interpretation of specific type(s) of baseline electrophysiologic study(ies)
(92585, 95822,95870, 95925-95928, 95929, 95930). The time spent performing
or interpreting the baseline electrophysiologic study(ies) should not be counted
as intraoperative monitoring, but represents separately reportable procedures.
Code 95920 should be used once per hour even if multiple electrophysiologic
studies are performed. The baseline electrophysiologic study(ies) should be
used once per operative session.)
(For electrocorticography, use 95829)
(For intraoperative EEG during nonintracranial surgery, use 95955)
(For intraoperative functional cortical or subcortical mapping, see 95961-95962)
(For intraoperative neurostimulator programming and analysis, see 95970-95975)
