CPT 92507 is being deleted and replaced with new time-based speech therapy CPT codes. What does this mean for SLP reimbursement, Medicare billing, work RVUs, and compliance?

In this episode of Fix SLP, Jeanette Benigas, PhD, is joined by Rick Gawenda to break down:

• Why CPT 92507 was targeted for review
• The new proposed speech therapy CPT codes
• RUC work RVU recommendations
• Practice expense implications
• The shift from untimed to timed codes
• The risk to auditory processing disorder and communication in the new code language
• How audits and payer denials could increase
• What SLPs can do before the March 6 open comment period

The AMA CPT Editorial Panel approved deleting 92507 and creating ten new time-based treatment codes. But what’s missing? Language that includes auditory processing disorder, communication, and flexibility for real-world therapy sessions.

If you’re a speech-language pathologist in private practice, outpatient therapy, pediatrics, hospital, SNF, or home health, this episode explains exactly what is happening and what could change in 2027. This is the episode every SLP needs to hear about CPT 92507.
