What 92615 covers

This service is the clinical interpretation and written report for a flexible endoscopic swallowing examination that includes laryngeal sensory testing. During the related examination, a thin endoscope is passed through the nose to view the pharynx and larynx as the patient swallows; sensory testing evaluates the laryngeal response to stimulation. The study may help assess dysphagia, airway protection, or suspected aspiration. It is commonly performed in an outpatient setting by a speech-language pathologist or an otolaryngology team, with the interpreting clinician documenting the findings.

Report 92615 for the interpretation and report associated with the sensory-testing examination represented by 92614; it does not describe performing the endoscopic examination or administering the sensory stimulus. Documentation should identify the study reviewed, summarize relevant swallowing and sensory findings, and provide the clinical interpretation. Distinguish this report from interpretation of an endoscopic swallowing examination without sensory testing, and from a combined swallowing and laryngeal sensory study represented by a different code. CMS lists 92615 as a separately valued service in the physician fee schedule.
