Speech-language pathology

About 92607: Speech-generating device evaluation

A speech-language pathologist evaluates a patient’s communication needs and access options to recommend a speech-generating device during the first hour of assessment.

A speech-language pathologist with augmentative and alternative communication expertise evaluates whether a speech-generating device can meet a patient’s communication needs. The assessment may address people with complex communication needs, such as someone with ALS or cerebral palsy, and consider communication abilities, access methods, device features, and trials of candidate systems. It is commonly performed in an outpatient therapy setting with the patient present.

Report 92607 for the first hour of the face-to-face evaluation; report 92608 for each additional 30 minutes when the evaluation continues. Documentation should identify the patient’s communication needs, assessment activities, device or access options considered, recommendation, and time spent. CMS classifies this as a therapy service, so the professional component modifier does not apply. For multiple therapy units on the same day, practice expense is reduced for the second and later units under the therapy multiple procedure payment reduction.
