Wiki EMG 2013 codes & Units

[q1stmdb]

For the new EMG codes, do we still need to report the number of units?

In 2012, if the doctor did 8 nerves it was reported 95903 x 8 units
So now is 95910 x 1 unit or 95910 x 8 units?

the new codes are for a specified number of studies, you pick the code that corresponds to the number of studies performed and bill it one time with one unit.

For the new NCS codes, you always use a maximum unit of 1 per day. It would be 95910x 1
