#117: The End of CPT 92507: Is Your SLP Documentation Ready?

In this episode, Jeanette Benigas, PhD/SLP, is joined by adult and pediatric private practice owners Katie Brown, MA/SLP, and Emily Watkins, MCD/SLP, to talk about what the new code set could mean for documentation, billing, compliance, and audit risk across pediatric and adult settings.

Katie and Emily share firsthand experiences with Medicare, Medicaid, and commercial insurance audits, including what payers requested, what triggered the audits, and why documentation supporting medical necessity and skilled intervention matters. They also deliberate one of the biggest shifts ahead: moving from a catch-all code to multiple service-specific codes means SLPs will need to clearly support what they treated, why it required skilled intervention, and the time spent providing that treatment.

The takeaway: do what you bill, bill what you do, and document what you do.

Whether you’re a clinician, manager, or private practice owner, now is the time to understand the changes and prepare... before January.
