About 92652: Multiple-frequency auditory evoked potential testing
Reports objective hearing-threshold estimation across multiple frequencies using auditory evoked potentials, with interpretation and a report for hearing-status determination.
This test records neural responses to sound at multiple frequencies to estimate hearing sensitivity. Audiologists commonly use it for infants and for patients who cannot provide reliable behavioral responses, including some patients with developmental or communication limitations. Testing is performed in audiology clinics and hospital settings, with results interpreted and documented in a report.
Report 92652 when the purpose is hearing-status determination across multiple frequencies, rather than a screening test or a neurodiagnostic evaluation. Documentation should identify the tested frequencies and ears, the response findings used to estimate hearing thresholds, and the interpretation. CMS prices this code as bilateral: the payment already reflects both ears, and modifier 50 does not increase payment.

92652 billing questions
How does 92652 differ from 92651?
92652 is for hearing-status determination across multiple frequencies. 92651 is used for hearing-status determination with auditory evoked potentials when the service is not the multiple-frequency threshold evaluation represented by 92652.
Can modifier 50 be used to increase payment?
No. CMS prices 92652 as bilateral, and modifier 50 does not increase payment.
Is this a screening test?
No. 92652 reports multiple-frequency testing to determine hearing status. 92650 is the auditory evoked-potential screening code.
When is 92653 more appropriate?
Use 92653 for auditory evoked potentials performed for a neurodiagnostic purpose. Use 92652 when the purpose is estimating hearing status across multiple frequencies.
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.
