Billing and Coding: Cardiac Event Detection

This billing and coding guideline article (A56606) provides complementary guidance for Cardiac Event Detection and defers to Local Coverage Determination L34573 for clinical indications, exclusions, documentation, and frequency limits. Users must consult LCD L34573 for the authoritative medical necessity, coverage, and coding rules; this article augments but does not replace that LCD.

"Coverage and billing for cardiac event detection should follow the clinical indications and medical necessity criteria specified in Local Coverage Determination L34573."
