CPT code 97014: Unattended Electrical Muscle Stimulation (EMS) Therapy

Attended electrical stimulation means that the professional is providing constant direct contact during the electrical stimulation in physical therapy settings.

No, 97014 is an unattended modality.

Coverage varies; often considered adjunctive and may be non-covered unless part of a therapy plan, whether that plan is for pain management or muscle strengthening. To add, Medicare may also consider the HSPCS code rather than the CPT code.
