23.3.2.5 Second Revisit
The second revisit procedure code 99212, includes aided sound field testing performed by a contracted evaluator according to the guidelines specified for the hearing evaluation. If the aided sound field test scores suggest a decrease in hearing acuity, the provider must include puretone and speech audiometry on Form 3503, Hearing Aid Evaluation Report. The second revisit is available as needed after the post-fitting check and the first revisit.
The following table lists hearing aid instrument, assessment, and revisit procedure codes.
Note: Hearing aid procedures indicated with "MR" must be submitted with the MSRP in the Comments field of the claim. If the MSRP is not included in the comments field on the original submission, the claim will be denied. Providers will be required to submit their request as an appeal, and must include an invoice validating the cost of the instrument.
