Medicare allowed amount for participating (non-QP) physicians, before deductible, coinsurance and claim adjustments. Not a patient’s bill or a hospital charge.

What 92567 covers

Tympanometry uses a sealed ear canal probe to vary air pressure and record how the tympanic membrane and middle ear system respond. The tympanogram helps assess middle ear fluid, negative pressure from eustachian tube dysfunction, and possible perforation or a patent ventilation tube when ear canal volume is unusually large. Audiologists, otolaryngologists, pediatricians, and primary care practices perform the test, usually in an office, sometimes alongside pure tone audiometry or after obstructing cerumen is removed.

Report one unit for testing both ears. CMS already prices 92567 as bilateral, so modifier 50 adds no payment; use modifier 52 to identify a reduced service when only one ear is tested. CMS classifies the code as a therapy service for its component indicator, so do not split the test into claims with modifiers 26 and TC. Document findings for each ear, including ear canal volume and measurable peak pressure and compliance, or a flat tracing if no peak is present. Use 92550 for a combined tympanometry and acoustic reflex threshold battery; 92570 includes reflex decay testing as well.

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.
