Treatment Codes & Reimbursement Rates

Under the 2026 Final Rules, active motion management is now included in higher-complexity radiation treatment delivery codes.

The cards below summarize the updated treatment delivery codes and national average reimbursement rates for hospital and free-standing settings.

American Medical Association (AMA) definitions:

Active Motion Management
+

Treatment delivery with active motion management (77412) includes intra-fraction localization and tracking of the target(s) or patient motion to optimize beam delivery (eg, intra-fraction motion, surface guidance). Intra-fraction motion management utilizes fiducials or imaging to monitor the target or organs at risk during the breathing cycle (eg, during a deep inspiration breath hold). This method minimizes organ motion and allows more accurate delivery of radiation to mobile targets and active avoidance of OAR.

Surface Guidance
+

Surface guidance for active motion management is a technique that allows the linear accelerator to perform gating (eg, optical) during treatment delivery using the body surface contour as a surrogate for internal target motion and OAR avoidance. Surface guidance is one method to effect active motion management, although there are other methods as well.

Note: This is not for patient set-up prior to treatment delivery (eg, not to replace tattoos).
