Pricing of HCPCS G2066 — Update

On 3/12/2020 NGS posted an article on our website regarding a fee adjustment for HCPCS G2066 (Interrogation device evaluation(s), (remote) up to 30 days; implantable cardiovascular physiologic monitor system, implantable loop recorder system, or subcutaneous cardiac rhythm monitor system, remote data acquisition(s), receipt of transmissions and technician review, technical support and distribution of results).

While NGS recognizes its authority to periodically review and adjust pricing as warranted of any “Contractor Priced“ codes, the adjustment in payment for HCPCS G2066 will not go into effect during this PHE, as scheduled on 4/24/2020.

HCPCS G2066 was created by the CMS for 2020 to replace the retired code of CPT 93299. Therefore, the fee for G2066 will remain the same as the prior 2019 fee for CPT 93299.

At such time as the PHE is deemed over, HCPCS G2066 will be reviewed for pricing based on other MAC fees; a thorough review of this service; and further input from stakeholders.
