Routine EEG
A routine EEG consists of at least a twenty minute recording with referential and bipolar montages and at least eight
channels (except in neonates). Hyperventilation and photic stimulation should be done in all cases where clinically
possible.

Sleep-deprived/induced EEG
A sleep-deprived/induced EEG is an EEG recording (with or without video monitoring) performed after:
an overnight period of sleep deprivation of greater than 4 hours; or
the administration of a sedative/hypnotic agent prior to the EEG recording for the purposes of sleep induction.
The amount payable for a sleep-deprived/induced EEG that does not meet the above requirements will be
reduced to that for a routine EEG fees (i.e. G414 and G415/G418).
[Commentary: Examples of physiological parameters include ECG, respirations, EMG, extra-ocular
movements, oxygen saturation, and temperature.]
1. G414 is not eligible for payment with G541.
2. G415 and G418 are not eligible for payment with G543.
3. EEG services (i.e. G414, G415, G418, G541, G543, G540, G545, G542, G546, G554, G555, or G544) are not
eligible for payment with any overnight or daytime sleep study (i.e. J898, J899, J990, J896, J897, J895, J890,
J889, J893 or J894).
