NCSHLA'S RESPONSE TO CHANGES IN 92507
CPT code 92507 has been flagged by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) after experiencing more than 100% utilization growth between 2017 and 2022, triggering a high-volume growth review that may result in changes to the code’s description and valuation through the AMA CPT Editorial Panel. In response, the American Speech-Language-Hearing Association (ASHA) has developed and proposed revisions; however, there is strong opposition to these changes due to concerns that the data informing the review do not accurately represent pediatric habilitative care. Critics argue that the proposed revisions could significantly undervalue services and ultimately reduce access to care for children.
