Our Nephrologists are thinking about getting a 24 hour blood pressure monitor. My research tells me we may not get reimbursed for codes 93784 - 93790. Is anyone out there getting paid for these codes?
unfortunately these codes are only covered thru Medicare when the patient does not already have a diagnosis for hypertension.
Aetna and BCBS do not cover these codes...
This is a very limited covered cpt code
usually when we do the hook ups, we have the patient sign an ABN form for those that arent covered by insurance.
