Audiology

About 92575: Sensorineural acuity level test

Report this specialized audiology test when sensorineural hearing sensitivity needs assessment, particularly when a conductive component complicates interpretation of hearing thresholds.

An audiologist performs the sensorineural acuity level test to estimate inner-ear hearing sensitivity, including when a conductive component makes ordinary air-conduction thresholds difficult to interpret. The test uses masking noise with bone-conduction testing to help assess the sensorineural portion of hearing loss. It may be part of a diagnostic evaluation for a patient with suspected mixed hearing loss or middle-ear disease.

Report the test for the specific sensorineural acuity assessment, not as a substitute for routine pure-tone thresholds or speech testing. The record should identify the clinical question, test performed, and results. CMS treats this as a technical-component-only service; interpretation is covered by a separate code. The code is priced as bilateral, so report it without modifier 50 to seek increased payment for testing both ears.

92575 billing questions

Does this code include the interpretation?

No. CMS identifies 92575 as technical-component-only; a separate code covers interpretation. Keep documentation of the test performance distinct from the interpretation.

Should modifier 50 be appended when both ears are tested?

No. The code is already priced as bilateral, and modifier 50 does not increase payment.

Can this be reported with standard audiometry?

It can be reported with standard audiometry when both services are performed and documented. The standard test measures hearing thresholds; 92575 addresses sensorineural acuity.

What documentation supports reporting 92575?

Document the reason for the sensorineural acuity assessment, the test performed, and the results. The record should support that this specialized test was performed rather than only routine threshold 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 indices and the applicable conversion factor. Unavailable or separately priced services are labeled rather than assigned a made-up amount.
