Reimbursement Information for ABPM  

ABPM is currently reimbursable by both Medicare and private insurance providers. Global reimbursement rates generally vary between $62 - $122 for Medicare and $75-$300 for private insurance carriers. Rates for reimbursement rates vary depending on geographical region, insurance company policies and patient conditions

Medicare currently only reimburses ABPM for patients with suspected "white coat" hypertension. This requires the patient meeting a set of qualifying criteria. For more information, please view Medicare's most recent statement (251k PDF) on policy and instructions for ABPM reimbursement.
