If you're in the SLP world, you probably know about the upcoming changes to speech therapy billing codes.
But what impact will they actually have on practices? Instead of taking our best guess, we asked.
Based on a survey we did of the questions and concerns we're hearing from Ambiki users, here are some of the things our team is focused on getting answers to and building solutions for:
- Which new codes should I use, and when?
- How will base and add-on codes work for timed services?
- Will Ambiki automatically calculate the appropriate codes and units based on treatment time?
- What happens if different payers adopt the new codes or timing rules differently?
- How will existing authorizations for 92507 be handled?
- How should documentation change, including the way treatment time is recorded?
- How will we know payer rates for the new codes?
- What safeguards will Ambiki have to help prevent coding errors and denials?
- How much will therapists need to know themselves versus what Ambiki can handle automatically?
Did we miss anything?
If you're an SLP, practice owner, biller, or anyone else preparing for these changes, what questions are still on your mind?
