Why This Topic Matters

MEG is a specialized neurologic diagnostic service that may be part of pre-surgical planning or functional mapping. Understanding the article helps coding professionals recognize what the service covers and where related coding guidance is addressed.

Article Sections

1. Overview of magnetoencephalography (MEG)

   Introduces MEG as a diagnostic technique used in neurologic evaluation and functional mapping. Summarizes the general clinical settings in which the service may be considered.

2. CPT reporting options and related guidance

   Identifies the CPT framework associated with MEG and references adjacent diagnostic services that may be reported in related circumstances. Provides broad context for the coding discussion without reproducing detailed instructions.

3. Clinical Example (95965)

   Presents a representative pre-surgical neurology scenario tied to the MEG service category. Includes a high-level description of the procedural workflow associated with the example.

4. Clinical Example (95966)

   Presents a representative functional mapping scenario for MEG in a pre-surgical context. Summarizes the type of procedure narrative associated with this example.

5. Clinical Example (95967)

   Presents a representative scenario involving additional functional mapping in a pre-surgical setting. Summarizes the associated procedure narrative at a high level.
