CPT Knowledgebase - Jun 28, 2011

During cochlear implantation procedures, an audiologist is requested to perform neural response te-lemetry to assess the electrode impedance and to stimulate the internal cochlear implant device. The provider holds an external processor and coil over the internal device. Electrodes are selected for testing with documenta-tion indicating which electrodes were stimulated and the response. May either code 92601-52 or code 92603-52, based on age, be appropriate, or would this procedure be reported with unlisted code 92700?
