(A) E2500 Speech generating device, digitized speech, using prerecorded messages, less than or equal to eight minutes recording time;

(B) E2502 Speech generating device, digitized speech, using prerecorded messages, greater than eight minutes but less than 20 minutes;

(C) E2504 Speech generating device, digitized speech, using prerecorded messages, greater than 20 minutes but less than 40 minutes;

(D) E2506 Speech generating device, digitized speech, using prerecorded messages, greater than 40 minutes recording time;

(E) E2508 Speech generating device, synthesized speech, requiring message formulation by spelling and access by physical contact with the device;

(F) E2510 Speech generating device, synthesized speech, permitting multiple methods of message formulation and multiple methods of device access;

(G) E2511 Speech generating software program for personal computer or personal digital assistance;

(H) E2512 Accessory for speech generating device, mounting system;

(I) E2599 Accessory for speech generating device, not otherwise classified;

(J) L7520 Repair prosthetic device, labor component, for 15 minutes;

(K) L8510 Voice amplifier; and

(L) V5336 Repair, modification of augmentative communication system or device excluding adaptive hearing aid.

(4) Services not subject to PPR or PA:

(a) 92521 Evaluation of speech fluency (e.g., stuttering, cluttering);

(b) 92522 Evaluation of speech sound production (e.g., articulation, phonological process, apraxia, dysarthria);

(c) 92523 Evaluation of speech sound production (e.g., articulation, phonological process, apraxia, dysarthria) with evaluation of language comprehension and expression (e.g., receptive and expressive language);

(d) 92524 Behavioral and qualitative analysis of voice and resonance;

(e) 92597 Evaluation for use and fitting of voice prosthetic device to supplement oral speech;

(f) 92607 Evaluation for prescription for speech-generating augmentative and alternative communication device, face-to-face with the patient, first hour;

(g) 92610 Evaluation of oral and pharyngeal swallowing function, limited to two per 12-month period;

(h) 92608 Each additional 30 minutes (List separately in addition to code for primary procedure);

(i) 92611 Motion fluoroscopic evaluation of swallowing function by cine or video recording, limited to two per 12-month period;

(j) S9152 Speech therapy, re-evaluation, limited to four per 12-month period;

(k) A4649 Supplies for speech therapy, limited to two per calendar year not to exceed $4.75 each;

(l) 92526 Treatment of swallowing dysfunction and oral function for feeding;

(m) 92609 Therapeutic services for the use of speech-generating device, including programming and modification;

(n) L7510 Repair of prosthetic device, repair or replace minor parts;

(o) L8500 Artificial larynx, any type;

(p) L8501 Tracheostomy speaking valve;
