My doctors manage trachs at a trach center. The speech pathologist who is employed by the trach center asked for assistance with FEES (swallowing study). I understand that the procedure the speech pathologist will code is 92612. My Dr. would bill 92613 for interpretation & report. Since he is doing 31575 he doesn't understand why he can't bill for it. Thanks for your help.

I don't exactly understand 100% but it may be worth checking with ASHA as well. That's a good question though
