Question

EMG computerized interference pattern

Good morning everyone.

According to the CPT guidelines, needle EMG procedures include the interpretation of electrical waveforms measured by equipment that produces both visible and audible components of electrical signals recorded from the muscle(s) studied by the needle electrode.

Question: For those who bill EMG's, can you bill separately for 'EMG computerized pattern analysis' and do you receive reimbursement from payers?

Thank you in advance for any information you can give.
