Below are the E Stim codes for Medicare. It is important to note that payment for these codes includes the cost of electrodes. It is important to read these definitions carefully to understand which code is appropriate.
It is also important to understand that not all commercial payers use the Medicare e-stim codes. Some commercial payers will only accept the 97014 (or other) codes. If you plan to utilize e-stim in your plan of care, it is important to verify up front with the patients benefits the billing guidelines for this code for that specific payer.
