# CPT 93325

> Medicare paid $26.15 for CPT 93325 in the office (non-facility) setting and $26.15 in a facility under the Q4 2014 Physician Fee Schedule, effective October 2014. These are the national allowed amounts before the ~2% sequestration cut and before locality (GPCI) adjustment.

## What it is

An add-on to a heart ultrasound that paints moving blood onto the gray-scale image in color, with the color indicating which way the blood is travelling and roughly how fast. It makes leaking valves, abnormal jets, and holes between chambers visible at a glance, and it tells the operator exactly where to aim the Doppler beam for precise velocity measurement. It is an overlay on the same scan, not a separate examination.
