Minnesota HF1935 raises reimbursement rates for long-term ambulatory electrocardiogram monitoring services.

Minnesota HF1935 amends state statutes to increase reimbursement rates for long-term ambulatory electrocardiogram monitoring services provided by diagnostic testing facilities. Effective January 1, 2026, or upon federal approval, whichever is later, the commissioner must reimburse these facilities at 100 percent of the Medicare Physician Fee Schedule rate or higher. This change aims to ensure adequate compensation for services that use external cardiac patch monitoring devices to detect heart arrhythmias, potentially preventing serious health complications.
