What 92065 covers

This service covers a hands-on session of orthoptic or pleoptic training delivered in direct contact with the patient. Ophthalmologists, optometrists, or other qualified health care professionals may perform sessions that address visual function, such as binocular coordination or convergence problems. Training may use prescribed eye exercises or other structured activities selected for the patient’s diagnosed condition and treatment goals; it is not simply an eye examination or a recommendation for home exercises.

Report the code for each qualifying session, supported by documentation of the condition treated, the training performed, the patient’s participation and response, and the continuing medical direction and evaluation. The record should distinguish the treatment session from a separately performed assessment, such as a sensorimotor examination. CMS pricing treats this code as bilateral, so modifier 50 does not increase payment.

This summary was written with AI assistance from CMS physician fee schedule data and checked against the CMS billing rules shown here. Rates on this page come directly from CMS files.

92065 billing questions

How does 92065 differ from 92066?

92065 is for training delivered in direct contact with the patient by a physician or other qualified health care professional. 92066 describes training performed under a physician’s or qualified health care professional’s supervision.

Can 92065 be reported with a sensorimotor examination?

Yes, when a distinct sensorimotor examination is performed and documented in addition to the training session. The examination evaluates alignment or eye movement; the training is the therapeutic service.

Should modifier 50 be appended?

No. CMS pricing already treats 92065 as bilateral, and modifier 50 does not increase payment.

What documentation supports a session?

Document the treated visual condition, the specific training activities, direct patient participation, the response or progress, and the continuing medical direction and evaluation.

Is 92065 reported per hour or per exercise?

The code is reported for each qualifying training session, not separately for each exercise. The record should identify the session and the services delivered.

Where these rates come from

FeeBase calculates base physician payments from CMS work, practice-expense and malpractice RVUs, adjusted by each locality’s geographic indexes and the conversion factor. Services without a published rate are labeled, never given a made-up amount. Amounts are Medicare allowed amounts before claim adjustments: not a patient’s bill or a commercial rate.
