CAC 4/12/12 Administrative posting. Medicare variation revised. 2013 Codes added-12/20/2013-sb

8/1/13 administrative change. Added reference to L32943Anorectal Manometry, Anal Electromyography, and Biofeedback Training for Perineal Muscles and Anorectal or Urethral Sphincters in the Medicare variation and in reference list.

CAC 1/28/14 Consensus. Policy statement on quantitative sensory testing updated to include vibration threshold testing and thermal threshold testing as

investigational. Updated Background/Description. Changes to statement did not result in any coding changes therefore reviewed as consensus. Administrative coding changes 51784 added.

CAC 1/27/15 Minor revision. Policy retitled “Electromyography and Nerve Conduction Studies”. BCBSA criteria adopted. EMG/NCS may be considered medically necessary as an adjunct to clinical examination for the diagnosis of peripheral neuropathies and myopathies when criteria are met.

The criteria for the following testing was removed from this policy and (3) new individual policies were created:

 MP-2.097 Paraspinal Surface Electromyography (SEMG) to Evaluate and Monitor Back Pain

 MP-2.098 Quantitative Sensory Testing  MP-2.099 Automated Point of Care Testing
