Simple Exercise Breathing Test

South Dakota rates for HCPCS 94620

This covers a simple exercise-based test, such as a timed walk, in which a person's breathing, heart rhythm, and oxygen levels are monitored while they walk or perform light exertion. Lung function measurements are often taken before and after the activity to see whether exercise triggers breathing problems, such as narrowing of the airways. It is a more basic version of exercise testing compared to a full, detailed exercise study.
