EchoGo® Heart Failure
EchoGo® Heart Failure is eligible for reimbursement in both outpatient and inpatient settings.
Below you will find the necessary coding information and payment methodologies for ensuring proper reimbursement.
Hospital Outpatient
In the hospital outpatient setting, the hospital can bill for the technical component by using CPT code 0932T. This is paid through the Ambulatory Payment Classification (APC) system. APC 5743 has a national average of $316.08 which will be wage-adjusted for each hospital locality.
Hospital InPatient
EchoGo is reimbursed under the DRG payment methodology. CMS continues to pay for new technologies through the regular payment mechanism established by the DRG payment methodology. Whether a technology receives new technology add-on payments or not does not affect coverage of the technology or the ability for hospitals to provide a technology to patients where appropriate.
