C1764 is the HCPCS Level II device code (often searched as CPT C1764) for: Event recorder, cardiac (implantable). No public Medicare dataset shows who bills C1764: this class of device code never appears as its own paid line in Medicare's public claims files.
C1764 is a packaged device code under Medicare's hospital outpatient system (OPPS status indicator N): its cost is bundled into the APC payment for the procedure it's used in. There is no separate payment, no APC of its own, and no fee-schedule rate to quote. In ambulatory surgical centers it is packaged into the surgical procedure's ASC payment: no separate payment.
No public CMS dataset carries C1764 utilization, at any grain. Its cost is packaged into the facility's APC payment for the procedure it rides in (the OPPS status N packaging class), so the code never appears as its own paid line in Medicare's public claims files. The Medicare-visible side is the procedure, not the device.
Per-claim C-code detail exists only in restricted CMS research files that can't be used in a commercial product. So any site offering a "C1764 top billers" list is showing you something other than real data. We'd rather show you what actually exists: the procedures below are where this device shows up in Medicare's public data, and each one has a real who-bills answer.
