![]() Audiologists previously reported 92700 (unlisted otorhinolaryngological service or procedure) for VEMP testing.ĩ2517 Vestibular evoked myogenic potential testing, with interpretation and report cervical (cVEMP) Three new CPT codes are now available for reporting vestibular evoked myogenic potential (VEMP) testing. Vestibular Evoked Myogenic Potential Testing Remember to check each payer for policies related to same-day billing with other codes ( National Correct Coding Initiative or CCI edits).Don't report 92653 in conjunction with 92651 or 92652. 92653 is a less extensive test than 92652 and the basic elements of 92653 are already included in 92651 or 92652 when they are performed to identify and quantify hearing impairment. Report this code when the purpose of testing is to identify brainstem or auditory nerve function. 92653 describes testing to evaluate neural integrity only, without defining threshold. ![]() Don't report 92652 in conjunction with 92651 or 92653. 92652 reflects comprehensive AEP testing for the purpose of quantifying type and degree of hearing loss. 92652 can also include testing with high level stimuli and rarefaction/condensation runs to confirm auditory neuropathy/auditory dyssynchrony. 92652 describes extensive electrophysiologic estimation of behavioral hearing thresholds using broadband and/or frequency-specific stimuli at multiple levels and frequencies.Don't report 92651 in conjunction with 92652 or 92653. Testing includes obtaining responses to broadband-evoked auditory brainstem responses (ABRs) using click stimuli at moderate-to-high and low stimulus levels. 92651 describes nonautomated follow-up electrophysiologic testing to rule out significant hearing loss, including auditory neuropathy/auditory dyssynchrony, or to verify the need for additional threshold testing.Do not report any combination of 92651, 92652, and 92653 together on the same day.Include modifier -52 (reduced service) for unilateral testing. These codes represent bilateral testing.(Do not report 92652 in conjunction with 92651)ĩ2653 neurodiagnostic, with interpretation and report ASHA Notes Auditory Evoked Potential Testingįour new, more descriptive CPT codes are now available for reporting auditory evoked potential (AEP) testing, replacing CPT codes 92585 (auditory evoked potentials, comprehensive) and 92586 (auditory evoked potentials, limited).ĩ2650 Auditory evoked potentials screening of auditory potential with broadband stimuli, automated analysisĩ2651 for hearing status determination, broadband stimuli, with interpretation and reportĩ2652 for threshold estimation at multiple frequencies, with interpretation and report The following new and revised CPT and HCPCS codes became effective January 1, 2021. Audiologists can contact ASHA's health care policy team at questions.įor current updates, see audiology CPT and HCPCS code changes for 2023. There were no major changes to HCPCS device codes for 2021. The following revisions, additions, and deletions to Current Procedural Terminology (CPT ® American Medical Association) and Healthcare Common Procedures Coding System (HCPCS) Level II codes related to audiology services became effective January 1, 2021.
