Remote Physiologic Monitoring (RPM) Overhaul
CMS has overhauled RPM codes for 2026. The generic "cloud data" codes are being phased out in favor of device-specific monitoring codes.
New Category III Codes
- 07X1T: Continuous wearable cardiac output monitoring (remote), > 7 days
- 07X2T: AI-detected arrhythmia verification by technician
Vascular Intervention Changes
Lower extremity revascularization codes (37220-37235) now carry stricter documentation requirements for medical necessity, specifically regarding ABI testing dated within 3 weeks of the procedure.
Actionable Steps
- Review all RPM device contracts for CPT 2026 compliance.
- Ensure vascular notes include specific vessel outcome predictions.
