What 92617 covers

This code represents the interpretation and written report for a flexible endoscopic swallowing examination that includes sensory testing, such as assessing the laryngeal response to stimulation. An otolaryngologist or speech-language pathologist with appropriate training may evaluate findings from patients with dysphagia, suspected aspiration, or impaired laryngeal sensation, including after stroke or other neurologic disease. The examination helps characterize swallowing function and airway protection while the endoscope provides a view of the pharynx and larynx.

Report 92617 for the interpretation and report associated with the sensory-testing study represented by 92616. The record should identify the examination and sensory testing performed, document relevant observations and responses, and include the clinician’s interpretation and conclusions. When the swallowing examination does not include sensory testing, the interpretation/report code for that study is 92613 instead. Distinguish this service from interpretation of sensory laryngoscopy that does not evaluate swallowing, reported with 92615.

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.

92617 billing questions

When is 92617 selected instead of 92613?

Use 92617 for interpretation and reporting of an endoscopic swallowing examination that includes sensory testing. Use 92613 when the endoscopic swallowing examination is performed without sensory testing.

How does 92617 relate to 92616?

92616 represents the endoscopic swallowing examination with sensory testing; 92617 represents interpretation and reporting of that examination. The report should document the findings and conclusions from the study.

Is 92617 the right code for sensory laryngoscopy without a swallow evaluation?

No. For interpretation and reporting of laryngoscopic sensory testing without the endoscopic swallowing evaluation, consider 92615.

What documentation supports reporting 92617?

Document that the study included sensory testing, the relevant endoscopic and sensory findings, and the clinician’s interpretation and conclusions. The report should correspond to the examination represented by 92616.

Does 92617 describe the endoscopic examination itself?

No. It represents the interpretation and report; 92616 represents the endoscopic swallowing examination with sensory testing.

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.
