Cpt 92558 and medicaid

[LaceyCanon]

I am having an issue with medicaid-they do not pay for the 92558, but in their manual it states for hearing screening for EPSDT patients under 21 use V5008-EP. So can this be billed to replace the 92558.

If Medicaid says to use code XYZ for the service you should use the code they tell you to use.

I am asking if the 92558 is equivalent to V5008??
