Help. This is not an area I've had to do coding for before and I keep looking thru the CPT book at the different options and getting lost.
Patient had the following tests adminsitered:
Weshler Adult Intelligence Scale (WAIS-IV)
Comprehensive Test of Phonological Processing (CTOPP)
Diagnostic Assessments of Reading (DAR)
Gray Oral Reading Test-4 (GORT-4)
Test of Word Reading Efficiency (TOWRE)
Criterion Referenced Spelling Test-II (CRST-2)
Test of Written Language (TOWL-4)
1st test was administered by the psych, all others administered by a technician, results were evaluated and report written by a psyc.
I have no clue where to begin coding for this. The end diagnosis was severe dyslexia,and I can code the diagnosis under 784.61, but for the CPT coding, I'm lost. Any dyslexia guru's out there that no how to code the diagnostic tests for dyslexia?
