Reader Question:

92545 Tests Random-Motion Tracking

Published on Fri Jul 02, 2004

Question: How should I code audiologist-performed random saccade? Florida Subscriber Answer: CPT doesn't specifically mention random or fixed-amplitude saccades, which test the patient's ability to track a fast-moving object in a random or fixed pattern. But you should report these tests, as well as smooth pursuit tests, with 92545 (Oscillating tracking test, with recording).
