Electrocardiogram Definition. A recording of the electrical activity of the heart. Abbreviated ECG and EKG. An ECG is a simple, noninvasive procedure. Electrodes are placed on the skin of the chest and connected in a specific order to a machine that, when turned on, measures electrical activity all over the heart.
An electrocardiogram, also known an EKG or ECG, is a test that examines heart conditions by measuring the heart's electrical levels. Electrodes are placed at several points on the body to transmit electrical impulses which create line patterns on paper. Health insurance may cover some or all of the cost of the EKG. 2  Generally, insurance will cover 80%-100% of EKG testing. 3  Contact an insurance provider for coverage specifics. 4  Some school athletic programs give student athletes EKGs to test heart health.
