Medicare Coverage Determination Process
Coding Information
CPT/HCPCS Codes: 83880 NATRIURETIC PEPTIDE
ICD-10-CM Codes that Support Medical Necessity
It is the responsibility of the provider to
code to the highest level specified in the ICD-10-CM (e.g., to the third to
seventh character). The correct use of an ICD-10-CM code listed below does not
assure coverage of a service. The service must be reasonable and necessary in
the specific case and must meet the criteria specified in this determination.
Bill Type Codes
Contractors may specify
Bill Types to help providers identify those Bill Types typically used to report
this service. Absence of a Bill Type does not guarantee that the article does
not apply to that Bill Type. Complete absence of all Bill Types indicates that
coverage is not influenced by Bill Type and the article should be assumed to
apply equally to all claims.
Revenue Codes
Contractors may specify
Revenue Codes to help providers identify those Revenue Codes typically used to
report this service. In most instances Revenue Codes are purely advisory.
Unless specified in the article, services reported under other Revenue Codes
are equally subject to this coverage determination. Complete absence of all
Revenue Codes indicates that coverage is not influenced by Revenue Code and the
article should be assumed to apply equally to all Revenue Codes.

The diagnosis code lists are derived from ICD-10 diagnosis codes that CMS posts each year so that providers and suppliers utilize the applicable diagnosis codes when submitting medical claims to Medicare. There are diagnosis codes that are applicable to liability and workers’ compensation situations but are not applicable to no-fault accidents or injuries. CMS reviews ICD 10 codes annually to identify the codes that may be used for Section 111 NGHP Claim Input File Detail Record submissions.

- Hospital, outpatient, ASC or office records should clearly document the reason for the MAC (e.g., the patient’s condition that requires the appropriate anesthesia; indications the procedure performed was deep, complex, complicated or markedly invasive).
- The medical record should include a pre-anesthesia evaluation including a history and physical exam.
- The medical record should include evidence of continuous monitoring of the patient’s oxygenation, ventilation, circulation and temperature.
- The medical record should include a post-anesthesia evaluation of the patient including any unusual events or complications and the patient’s status on discharge.
