Remote Monitoring Check of an Implanted Defibrillator (ICD)

North Carolina rates for HCPCS 93295

Data from an implanted cardiac defibrillator is transmitted electronically to a clinical team, allowing them to review the device's settings, battery status, and any recorded heart rhythm events without requiring an in-person office visit. This remote check covers a period of monitoring over time, rather than a single point-in-time reading. It helps the care team catch problems, like device alerts or abnormal rhythms, between scheduled in-person visits.
