The CPT code that will be reported for moderate sedation is 9914 [4].
This is the government approved CPT code for moderate sedation for patients that are five years old and older and the code is used when the moderate sedation and the other needed procedure is performed by the same health provider for the intraservice period of 15 to 30 minutes.
