OTOLOGIC and AUDIOLOGIC CPT CODES
PLEASE NOTE: According to a recent article by Fred Rahe, Au.D.(see News Articles), there have been changes to the Current Procedural Terminology (CPT) coding system for 2010, requiring the use of bundled codes when available. Please read the article for additional information.
