Action Required
No immediate action required. Continue existing practice of not billing CPT codes 93701, 0104T, and 0105T for thoracic bioimpedance and inert gas rebreathing in outpatient settings as these remain investigational and non-covered. If providers request these services, inform them of non-coverage status.
