This article provides billing/coding guidelines that complement Local Coverage Determination L34417 for CT of the head; consult LCD L34417 for specific coverage, coding, and documentation requirements.
The medical record must contain documentation fully supporting medical necessity, including relevant medical history, physical examination, and results of pertinent diagnostic tests or procedures.
Each echocardiography service requires a formal written report with interpretation retained in the record and copies of image documentation (paper or electronic) available for review.
A complete study must include M-mode and/or 2D measurements of LV end-diastolic diameter, LV end-systolic diameter, LV wall thickness, left atrial diameter, aortic valve excursion, and a qualitative description of LV function, or valid substitutes such as LV volumes, ejection fraction, and mass.

Transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) is covered when the patient's medical record documents medical necessity consistent with the LCD indications for TTE.
Contrast (contrast-enhanced) echocardiography is covered when conventional echocardiographic studies were inconclusive and contrast enhancement is needed to complete diagnostic evaluation.
Repeat echocardiographic studies are covered to monitor changes in cardiac structure or function when there is a change in clinical status or when disease progression is suspected.
An ECG is covered when the result is relevant to the management, diagnosis, or treatment of the patient.
A separate ECG on the same day as a cardiac stress test is payable only when it provides additional clinically necessary information beyond the stress test (e.g., to rule out acute myocardial infarction prior to performing the stress test).
Rhythm ECGs are covered when used to evaluate signs or symptoms suggesting a cardiac rhythm disorder.
